"Sky Galleons of Mars is a fast-playing and engrossing game of aerial combat in the Martian skies between the wooden cloud-fleets of the Martian princes and the steel aerial gunboats of Queen Victoria's Royal Navy. Detailed model-quality plastic playing pieces add to the enjoyment of the basic game. Once the basic scenarios are mastered, players can go on to design their own galleons and gunboats, and play out continuing aerial campaigns. The rules cover movement, altitude, gunnery, damage, ramming, boarding parties, and other aspects of battle between aerial Fleets. Also included in Sky Galleons of Mars is extensive background information on the universe of Space: 1889, its history, politics, and science. Space: 1889 is an entrancing universe of the familiar and jarringlyunfamiliar. It is a universe of colonial adventurers of the Victorian Era who are seeking their fortune, exploring the unknown, and pushing back the frontiers of a world-spanning empire."
