Jutland 100 Years and 100 Ships Later

A battle so big, it needs more than one sea cloth.


Jutland 100 years later, 100 ships later. This past Saturday The gang gathered to re-fight the Battle of Jutland in time for the centenary. After some extended set up time we managed to have over a hundred ships on the table. The rules were simple enough that we figured a 1:1 staging of the battle was possible. At the last minute we excluded some minor ships. Grand Admiral by Majestic 12 games is a bare bones hex based rules set. There were some minor hitches with the rules but with some tweaking they are usable for big battles. The British fleet got lucky on the draw sinking some of the German BBs for an exchange of some lighter ships. We called it at that point as time was running out.
