Bismarck: The Last Battle

This game utilizes a unique and strategic card-driven battle system revolving around Bismarck's operations which will provide player with a multitude of decisions & tactics.

While extremely competitive as a solitaire game, Bismarck : The Last Battle is quite addict for the player, as every repeatable battle is a struggle to survival. The card-based battle system is a different take on the "normal" event/operations points driven systems. Separate card decks are provided for each game turn, in a total of 5 decks, including enemy units (carriers, planes, detroyers etc.) in a 100% historical approach.

Units comprise five different types:

• Carriers

• Airplane Bombers

Special rules are provided for Repairs, Fire, Damage Effects, Hull Meter, Weather Condition Track, Deck & Flak Gun Attacks etc.
