Grand Fleets: Tsar & Emperor

What is Grand Fleets: Tsar & Emperor

From the publisher:

Tsar & Emperor is the second scenario book for Grand Fleets, covering naval engagements during the first year of the Russo-Japanese War.

At the turn of the century, the idea that an upstart Asian nation could defeat one of the European Great Powers was laughable. Japan may have unexpectedly prevailed against China ten years earlier, but few had any doubts Russian battleships would make quick work of the Combined Fleet.

Admiral Tōgō largely answered those doubts with his surprise attack on Port Arthur. The war which followed was the first to translate the rapid technological advances of the late 19th century into massive casualty counts, presaging the killing fields of Flanders, leading many to dub it World War Zero.
