Table feel

Tsushima has a high level of direct confrontation and strategic depth, with frequent interaction between players. However, it does not emphasize cooperation as much.

Replay value

Tsushima has a high replayability score due to its variability in gameplay, strategic depth, and adaptability to different player counts. The game offers different experiences each time it is played, with multiple paths to victory and variable setups. The presence of expansions adds new content and gameplay elements, further enhancing the replay value. Players can continuously improve their strategy over time, discovering new tactics and strategies. The game scales well with different numbers of players, ensuring a consistent and engaging experience. While it may not be the easiest game to learn, it offers enough depth to keep players engaged and interested.

Luck profile

Tsushima has a moderate level of luck involved in the game. Random elements like dice rolls and card draws have a notable but not exclusive impact on the game outcome. However, players have substantial ability to mitigate randomness through strategic decisions and planning. The game outcome is primarily determined by player strategy and decisions, with luck playing a minor role.

Overview

Tsushima is a tactical naval game simulating the battles that were fought in the Sea of Japan in 1905, during the Russo-Japanese War. Counters represent individual capital ships with destroyer and torpedo boat flotillas. Hexes represent 1000 meters and each turn represents 7.5 minutes of real time. A number of scenarios are provided, each with its own victory conditions.
