Players have the option to take command of the Japanese forces, or assume the role of the Russians forces, the contender. Can you, in the span of 6 turns, assert control over more zones than your opponent and emerge victorious in this historic conflict?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe heart of naval supremacy lies in the intricacies of ship management. Each vessel in the game possesses three key attributes, while a group of ships belonging to one side within a Sea Area is collectively referred to as a Fleet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe gameplay unfolds in a structured turn sequence featuring various phases. From Fleet sortie, Operational Phase, and Scoring Phase to the Return to Port Phase and the advancement of the turn marker, each step is critical to success.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eVictory conditions add depth to the challenge. A major victory is claimed if, by the end of the sixth turn, the Japanese fail to establish an army in Mukden. Alternatively, the player whose side of the Points of Control (POC) track the marker resides on emerges as the victor, with POCs, representing victory points, that shift dynamically as players gain or lose control of sea zones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eContents:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1 A3 Game board\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e6 Meeple soldiers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e6 Dice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e50 Ship counters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e4 Markers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1 Game turn track\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1 Rulebook\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nuts!
