So I've been fairly intrigued about starting up a naval combat table-top game. For instance, that game Uncharted Seas looks neat.
Can anyone give me a feel for how the game runs or any suggestions for similar games?
Cheers.

I know nothing about Uncharted Seas. Is it pirates, or something?
I am into WW1 and WW2 naval and play with General Quarters rules.
I used to play Harpoon modern naval, but the fun went out of that when the Cold War ended.

It seems to be a fantasy naval game - they seem to have boats for Dwarves/DragonLords/etc.

Honestly, I've no experience with any table-top naval games.
Any crash course into game-play would be great.

If you go to the downloads section of the Spartan Games website they have a PDF giving an example of gameplay.
From my point of view it's replaced Man'O'War to give me my naval warfare fix.
