Black Seas is naval wargame set in the age of sail fought using a range of specially designed 1/700 miniature ships from Warlord Games.

Using Black Seas you can fight battles from the american war of independence through the Napoleonic wars and beyond.

One of my favourite YouTube channels OnTableTop (Formerly Beasts of War) has a fantastic guide to playing Back Seas.

What is Star Wars: Legion?

BOARD GAME GEEK SUMMARY

It has been given a rating of 8.0 on BoardGameGeek from 1,400+ ratings.

Warfare is an inescapable part of the Star Wars universe, from the Rebel Alliance’s defeat in the Battle of Hoth to a few elite Rebel strike teams taking on a legion of stormtroopers on the Forest Moon of Endor. You can seize your chance to get your boots on the ground and lead your troops to victory with Star Wars: Legion, a miniatures game of thrilling infantry battles in the Star Wars universe!

Star Wars: Legion invites you to enter the ground battles of the Galactic Civil War as the commander of a unique army of miniatures filled with troopers, powerful ground or repulsor vehicles, and iconic characters like Darth Vader or Luke Skywalker. While innovative mechanics for command and control simulate the fog of war and the chaos of battle, the game’s unpainted, easily assembled minis give you a canvas to create the Star Wars army you’ve always wanted to lead into battle — whether you fight for the monolithic, oppressive Galactic Empire or the ragtag Rebel Alliance.

The Fifth Trooper YouTube channel has produced an excellent video explaining Star Wars: Legion.

If you’re interested in getting into Star Wars: Legion, then I recommend you look at the Fifth Trooper Network on Youtube for lots of guides and podcasts all based on Star Wars: Legion.
