Jutland

“Jutland” is a naval board wargame published by Avalon Hill in 1967 that simulates the Battle of Jutland in the North Sea during World War I. The game was designed by Charles S. Roberts and has been reprinted several times, with the most recent edition published by GMT Games in 2017. The game has gained popularity and significance due to its historical subject matter and its innovative Gameplay Mechanics of Jutland.

Why is Jutland Popular?

The game is popular and significant because it simulates the largest naval battle of World War I, which had a significant impact on naval warfare and strategy. The Battle of Jutland was an important source of data on modern naval warfare, and the game allows players to re-fight this historic battle. Additionally, the game has been influential in the development of other wargames, with its rules being reimplemented in Lensman (1969), the first sci-fi theme wargame.
