Welcome to Sloops of War

Sloops of War is an open source, highly tactical, naval strategy game set in the Caribbean around 17th/18th century. You will take control of a hand picked fleet of period naval vessels in an attempt to annihilate your enemies in online, turn based, free movement, naval combat.

Sloops of War has a focus on strategy; not on tank rushes, base building, improbable comebacks and other artifacts of traditional real-time strategy games. We want to recreate the tactical feel of Advance Wars where you can know the outcome of encounters between individual units (allowing you to pick your battles), and the fixed army lists of the Total War battle mode where the only troops you have are the ones you start with (forcing you to use your resources with care).
