Great War at Sea : Cruiser Warfare

In the summer of 1914, Germany's East Asia cruiser squadron repesented the High Seas Fleet's finest small force. Superbly trained crews of long-service professionals made Admiral Maximilian Graf von Spee's small fleet the envy of the China station.

But when war broke out, this tiny force found itself far from home and threatened by the powerful Japanese navy, many times the size of the German squadron. Spee decided to force his way home around the world. After an epic journey across the Pacific, his cruisers met their end off the Falkland Islands in a final battle.

Cruiser Warfare gives the Great War at Sea series its greatest scope yet: the entire world. British, German, Japanese, Italian, Austro-Hungarian, Russian and Dutch ships begin as they did in August, 1914. The German player must disrupt Allied commerce and try to get the cruisers home if at all possible. The Allied player must track them down and destroy them before they can wreak havoc.
