The Chase of the Bismarck : Operation Rheinübung 1941

In each turn, both players secretly move any or all ships and air units under their command on their own search board.

If opposing ships are discovered to be in the same zone, they may proceed to combat on the Battle Board. This is the “tactical part of the game”. The game ends if Bismarck is sunk, arrives at a friendly port or the last turn of the game (evening of May 29th) has been played.
