Fleet Med: Tactical Naval Combat in the Mediterranean, 1939 - 1943

Fleet Med: Tactical Naval Combat in the Mediterranean, 1939 - 1943 is a strategic naval simulation of British and Italian forces in the Mediterranean during World War II.

Designed for 1–2 players, each player controls either the British or Italian forces. A computer opponent is available for 1-player games. The viewpoint is of the theater naval commander, and the player composes task forces, establishes missions and destinations for those groups, responding to operational events. The game is text-only, and came with a board and physical pieces to allow the player to keep track of the location of theirs and enemy units. Nine scenarios are included, covering events during World War II, as well as a scenario builder.

During each gameplay segment, the player sets taskforce management, where the player can combine and split ships from each group to create new groups. The player also sets movement orders for their ships. The player adjusts battle doctrine for each group, including open/close range rules, rules of engagement, and tactical guidance. The player's vessels then follow their commanding officer's directions for a two hour interval, at which point they await new orders.
