Description East of Suez explores the historical, hypothetical and even bizarre plans of the English Navy during the closing of the war. Scenarios range from actual engagements by the English Navy to those that only existed in Churchill's fertile mind. Background articles are included. East of Suez is part of the Second World War at Sea game system. It is comprised of a series of modules that use the same core rules but focus on different theaters of the war. Each unit represents a capital ship or a squadron of destroyers. There are two scale maps: operational and tactical. Fleets move around on the operational maps until contact is made, and then battle is resolved on the tactical map. Each operational square represents 36 miles of terrain or water. The Second World War at Sea system is vast, with many modules available. Each module focuses on a particular theme and provide counters, maps and scenarios to play. There are two types of modules, the core and the supplements. Core games are complete by themselves, with everything needed to play. Supplements expand on the core modules, bringing new scenarios and unit types to the game, but require one or more core module to play. East of Suez is not complete by itself, ownership of Leyte Gulf, Strike South and Eastern Fleet is required to play.
