Ships in Flames

About this expansion

Ships in Flames is a World in Flames expansion for 2–6 players, with games lasting around 360 minutes. It adds 1,000 full-colour counters representing the major aircraft carriers, battleships, heavy cruisers, submarines, and tramp steam-ships of World War II.

With ships shown in realistic wartime camouflage, this expansion brings a striking level of visual detail to naval conflict. It allows players to refight famous engagements, from the hunt for the Bismarck and the Battle for Midway to the climactic Battle of the Atlantic.

Ships in Flames invites players to step into the roles of influential naval commanders such as Nagano, Cunningham, and Halsey. Guide your country toward final victory while engaging with some of the defining naval operations of the Second World War.
