What is Dreadnoughts At Dawn
Dreadnoughts At Dawn is an innovative fast play set of rules for fighting large WWI naval battles utilizing 1:3000th or 1:2400 scale models
Whilst all ships from destroyers to super dreadnoughts are represented the emphasis is on capital ships, escorts are covered in a simplified way.
These rules originated as a project to see if I could produce a WWI naval set of rules that required zero off board record keeping. All the movement orders and damage keeping is carried out by custom markers on the board.
I have found that naval games are either too complicated to be fun or so abstracted as to have no atmosphere of realism about them at all. I wanted to do my best attempt at getting the balancing act between realism and complexity right for me. These rules are not “better” than anyone else's they just reflect my take on the period.
