Best Tactical Game on iOS
The best pure tactical game I've found for iOS. The players in this game's online community are friendly and helpful, but the game needs more players!
Love it! Great re-playability.
Just a wonderful game for a large size iPad. Clean attractive interface. Simple design, with nice nuances as you get deeper. I’ve only played against the AI, not online, the former being my preferred way to relax with a strategy game. I almost always beat the AI now, but it remains a challenge to do it without losing any of my ships. I’ve read every Patrick O’Brien story, of course, as well as the Hornblower series way back when. I find the game plays true to the strategy in the books, and I suspect to reality as well. The suicide missions by small fast enemy ships are a nice component of the AI’s strategy. One minor quibble is that boarding enemy ships still strikes me as too difficult, because they maintain much of their firepower to the end and tend to be too dangerous to approach to knock out sails and crew. Also, there doesn’t seem to be any bonus for having your cannons pre-loaded as you go into a turn, as compared to loading and firing in the same round. There are helpful warnings when you are about to leave cannons unfired or when ships are about to collide, but I still often forget to press the crucial “combat” button after a round of focusing on “repairs” or “sail.” Very modest price for many many hours of replayability, with no requests to buy more features or annoying requests for a review. Thank you for the wonderful app!

Needs updated
Requires better balancing of matchmaking. If unable to provide better balancing of matchmaking, esteem points should be awarded or taken away according to the difficulty of opponent. For example, a rank of master should not lose esteem points for losing to the admiral of the fleet or if a lieutenant wins against a rear admiral, the lieutenant should get a large promotion. Ranks should be reset for players after a year of inactivity. Lastly we need more battle scenarios. (Historic battles would be nice)

Still the best
If you enjoy strategy board games or war games, Naval Tactics is for you. It's like playing Wooden Ships & Iron Men, but without having to deal with all the numbers and paperwork. The Captain's Cards add just the right touch of tactical variety to give you an edge when played smartly. Seven years later, and I've still found no other iOS games that compare.

DON’T BUY!
This game, despite its hexwar like appearance, is NOTHING like advertised. It’s overly complicated, and without a decent tutorial system, it’s difficult to learn. Not only that, it’s AI is completely broken. I lost my entire fleet in three turns. I want my money back.

Fun, challenging and easy to play!
Wonderful game with many possible scenarios. If you like naval history, tactics and strategy, this is the game for you! Captain your ship one-on-one, or direct your fleet in multi-ship battles. Never a dull moment!
Hoist your sails!
This is, hands down, the best turned-based naval warfare game out there. A friendly user community is waiting to help young sailors over the learning curve, which is present...but worth the short climb! Can’t recommend it highly enough.
Excellent fighting sail game
If you want to get a feeling for a real fighting sail game like those you read about in the Hornblower series or the Master and Commander books (and movie), THIS is your game. So good it is almost a simulation, but great fun and you can learn the tactics of 17th, 18th and early 19th century naval combat. Take your time learning the game against the AI before you play with humans as this game is deep and accurate.
One of the absolute best combat simulation games on the iPad or anywhere else, PC, miniatures, or paper and pencil.

Realistic 18th century Naval Warfare
Battles available for all skill levels, including practice against the AI. All are free, but also has rated games for a small fee, to increase your “stripes” all the way to Admiral and beyond. This is the best Naval game in the App store.
Excellent Napoleanic era turn-based strategery game
“We shall beat to quarters”. Thrilling nautical action from the age of sail!

Difficulty in getting guns to fire
I love the game, but it has a bug that keeps it from full potential
I love this game. I play it as often as possible. But, recently, I have tried battle royale (6 player battle) and it acts fine until in round 0 I am setting up player six, and I have captain cards and ships picked out, and I push next, and the game freezes. PLEASE GET RID OF THIS!
Slow and boring
It is a good concept but it takes too long to complete an action. This makes the game almost unplayable.
UPDATE!
I rated this one star at first, thought it inscrutable. Just upgrade it to 5 stars, the more I play the more I love it. 3 player, with lots of ships, complex formations, it's really enjoyable, and is SO different from WW2 games that I also love.
The more I played it the more nuances I discovered and the more fun this became.
It's what I hoped for when I bought it, but couldn't see at first.
Really well done, tricky, challenging......I play a lot of these games and this is in my top 20.

Would be 5-stars, but.....
I really wish more ships were added to the game and there aren't enough single player missions. It is very otherwise.
Good game but wayyyy to slow
Fun and challenging but the game was to slow and the maps were too big...if the game was more cqc I would give 1/2 more star just missing that this is awesome feeling! It came very close! I did enjoy my time online and the community is very helpful! Worth $5 :)
Fire off a broadside!
This game is deceptively simple - at first you load your guns, charge your opponent, and unload broadside after broadside until the yellow-bellies surrender.
Later, however, you agonize over each turn, wondering if your frigate can handle one more barrage before you have to fall off to make repairs. You begin to love the firepower of a third-rate but cringe at how slowly it turns. You debate with yourself for hours whether to try to shred your opponents sails to make him a sitting duck at your mercy or maim his crew with gunshot and board him...
I could write more but I have moves to make before the wind shifts on me!

Excellent Turn-based Strategy Game
Harken back to the days of the tall ships, and build a fleet to take on other players, or play one of the many scenarios, each with their own challenge. The integrated help shows you the basics, and beginner scenarios allow you to learn piloting, maneuvering, firing on enemies, boarding enemy ships, all at your own speed.
Players of this game are probably the MOST helpful, mature, enthusiastic I’ve come across in iPad/iPhone world. Don’t understand something? Ask in chat, and it will be answered as players come online (It is asynchronous multiplayer, so players tend to hop on/off to play their turns when notified). And actually learned the game and its nuances by simple asking to be ‘shown the ropes’.
And wow. What a deep and satisfying game this is. If you love turn-based strategy, this is a great investment. I understand that the developer frequently updates, so really looking forward to seeing this game grow and mature.
