Warlord Games Reveal Upcoming Project, Black Seas
April 8, 2019 by brennon
Warlord Games at Salute 2019 revealed a new project, Black Seas. This takes the fights from the Black Powder era to the high seas with a dynamic and interesting game of naval combat.
We actually got to chat with one of the folks demonstrating the game at the event last weekend so if you'd like to catch up you can watch the video below...
We're very interested in this one and would love to find out what you think too in the comments below.
Could Black Seas be the game that wins you over and has you delving into naval combat?

Perhaps a bit big to reenact Trafalgar…
But could do some Hornblower fights.
in the navy they had white red and blue for first second an third class fleet ships this could work here.
Just wait until a 3 tier Ship of the Line appears, I do hope the rules scale up. So until Autumn, the sun is under the yardarm, go splice the main brace, kiss Hardy and mine is a rum and black.
Between this and Oak and Iron it is an interesting time for fans of the age of sail
No thanks, I will stick with Firelock Games Oak and Iron. I believe the play in Oak and Iron is better. This may be done to be easier but there is already too many fiddley rules just in the 8min video.
Arrg matey, yes i be wanting it!
Ok, I will need this. I’ve been trying to resist cruel seas, but this is too good.
So hyped for this! Am curious what the models will be made out of though
This looks great! I am interested in the final miniatures as the ones there looked fantastic!
This looks rather interesting. I cant wait to see it in person. Maybe we will get demos at our local con, Recruits Con. Warlord USA has had someone come the last couple of years and I am REALLY liking that. =)
Loving this! WANT WANT WANT!! Hoping they might consider an expansion for a bit earlier tho? What nations will be included? Would love to take the Danish navy and give those upstart Swedes a lesson or two 🙂
OMG! Plastic ships would be awesome!!!
Warlord are killing it at the moment
Sounds interesting. I just hope that Warlord isn’t overextending and they can do this while not taking away from they other games.
I wish I could be that lucky as tah win. But as luck would have it, i stand about as much chance winning this game as I do the Lotto. I’m more apt tah be struck by a cannon ball from The Victory
Only naval gaming I’ve done was a couple of convention plays of Close Action long ago. I really want to try this. Can’t wait.
Ships look good, but I’m not sold on the idea of putting those together (always thought Sailing ships like Langston’s were impossibly hard to do even moderately well!). If I’m sold on the game I might venture into it – but with trepidation! :-/
Can’t wait, had a few goes at Salute and it was really fun…
100% interested in this! Might just bring me back to the tabletop
Looks like an upgrade from Sails of Glory. I’m looking forward to it.
