show up to 2 reviews by default In Cruel Seas, you take on the role of a naval crew manning their fragile coastal craft as they head out day and night to take on both the sea and the enemy. Command your flotilla of small ships as they head out to attack a convoy, drop off Commandoes for a behind-the-lines mission or task them with one of the other myriads of missions this small and versatile craft would perform. Be it the Coastal waters of England or across the Channel to France, on to the Mediterranean waters or on further to the vast Island chains of the Pacific, Cruel Seas will ensure your small ships see plenty of adrenaline-fueled action. The powerful US Patrol Torpedo boats epitomize American know-how and firepower. The boats built by Higgins & Elco companies first saw service helping fight off the surprise Japanese attack at Pearl Harbor, where they shot down enemy aircraft with the four large caliber Browning machine guns. These boats were built principally of wood and were fast and maneuverable as a result. They served in the European Theater, the English Channel, the North Sea, the Mediterranean and in numbers in the Pacific generally hunting down small Japanese coasters and sampans. | 6.9 ounces (View shipping rates and policies)
