Man O' War is a naval wargame set in the Warhammer fantasy world, first published in 1993 by Games Workshop and credited to Andy Jones, Bill King and Nigel Stillman. Two to four players take the part of admirals, each commanding a fleet built from Ships of the Line, Men O' War or Independents. Every ship has its own areas with damage tracks, and a battle turn combines magic phases, initiative rolls and simultaneous activation of the ships. The game uses dice rolling, measurement-based movement and a variable phase order. A full game is listed at 180 minutes, and the box is rated for players aged twelve and over.
