Axis & Allies Naval Miniatures: War at Sea

Axis & Allies Naval Miniatures: War At Sea is a standalone miniature wargame, produced by Wizards of the Coast, the makers of Axis and Allies. Axis and Allies Naval Miniatures gameplay is similar to that of its sister game, Axis & Allies Miniatures, but the player takes command of Ships, Submarines, and squadrons of Aircraft.

Rules

War at Sea uses fairly simple rules. The players can get quickly familiarised with the Quick Start Guide and then continue with the Advanced Rules.

The advanced rules have been periodically updated, beginning in July 2007, with the Clarifications Document. The update introduces new concepts (such as ASW harassment and strafing penalties) not present in the original rules. Since at least one unit of the Task Force expansion set directly refers to these new rules, they are implicitly considered as part of the core ruleset, despite only having been published online to date.

There are some companies and blog sites that offer other ideas for Battles, advanced rules and tactics as well.

Errata

An official FAQ for the Task Force set can be found online.[1]. It addresses errata such as misprints and ambiguously worded rules for the Task Force expansion. Further errata are contained in the Clarifications Document. Only additional unacknowledged errata are listed here:
