STAR FLEET ADMIRALS - The Battle Board Game Play Example

In this tutorial, players learn how ship to ship combat is accomplished using the Battle Board. 
In this example the Imperium and their Sulomari allies attack a Federation task force.

There are no troops or stations involved and it is not a planetary system. There are no admirals in the battle because these ships are not assigned to a Fleet. In Fleet combat an admiral is always in command of the forces and lends his organizational and command abilities to the combat.
Each ship type has a letter identifier that tells players in what order it can attack and be attacked. Fighters are all class "A" meaning they can attack first. Following class "A" ships, class "A" and "B" ships can attack and be attacked. Once their combat is concluded, class "A", "B", and "C" ships and stations can attack and be attacked.

Finally once all ship-to -ship combat is completed and the defender has either retreated or been destroyed, invading troops may begin landing on the planet.
