Spruance Leader - Base Game Playthrough Part 1
105This is the first in a short series of playthroughs of an 'Easy' campaign in "Spruance Leader" from Dan Verssen Games.
This video covers set up of the 'North Atlantic Skirmishes' campaign in the game as well as the first turn of the first mission of the campaign.
Spruance Leader is the first foray for this venerable series into the naval realm and serves up some interesting "Cold War gone hot" gameplay. It has all the hallmarks of the Leader series with some special twists for its nautical theme.
