Awaited sequel to the popular WW2 Naval Strategy Game!

May 23 rd 2014 – Capital j Media (http://www.capitaljmedia.com/) will bring the sequel to their popular Naval Strategy Game, Battle Fleet, to all devices in June of 2014. Battle Fleet 2 expands the original concept of turn based naval combat where the player controls the angle and power of their guns and the movement of the ship to include a campaign conquest mode in addition to stand alone scenarios. The combat system has been improved for faster and even more exciting battles and it all looks better than the original with the new graphical engine. Find out more at http://www.battlefleetgame.com/bf2.html.

Additional improvements include better options for outfitting your ships, including the ability to place individual commanders with special abilities, expanded power-up cards to play, better multiplayer options, and an entirely new graphics engine. Battle Fleet 2 looks better, plays better, but is otherwise a true successor to the original best seller.

Battle Fleet 2 is a true naval combat sim set in the WW2 era. Players manually control the weapon loadout of their ships, selecting which guns to bring, setting what the angle and power of their shots are, and determining how the ships move and turn. Additionally carriers bring planes, bombing runs, and interception into battles taking place around island chains, which can help provide cover, blocking line of sight, or forcing enemies to run aground. All of this comes together in a fast paced battle in scenarios, campaign mode, or online against other players. Get all the information at http://www.battlefleetgame.com/bf2.html or find it on Steam at http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=262465622.

As long as the single player mode is good, I might check this out.

The new trailer looks rather interesting. There seems to be one thing missing though, so far I have yet to see any mention of subs! :o

The game is out now and its very nice imho.
PC version same as android/ios?

Bought the PC version and love it, mostly. What I don't like are some of the AI configured vessels and their weapons loadout. For example, I have seen a cruiser with 4 torpedo mounts and only 1 gun mount...sorta crazy. As well as one of my carriers came equipped with a torpedo launcher.

Aside from the non-traditional loadouts, I really like it. There needs to be an option to modify your ships when in a port facility. You can make your own setup when you purchase the vessel using your prestige, but not modify once you've left the port, at least I haven't figured out how too.

There also is no Read Me file that I can find, nor a tutorial. It was through trial and error that I figured out stuff, though it's not rocket science.

All in all, not a bad purchase for $10.00, plus the additional donation for future support you can give them as well, if desired.

Anyway, just my .02

I want to get this for my phone, but I can't find it on Google Play. :-?

Yeah, I bought this yesterday, and am having a ball. This is really good , I like the game play and its always good to see a new naval game come out. I gave it a 9/10 only because it needs more historical accuracy between Allied and Japanese ship classes, and aircraft. I mean using the Yamato to represent the South Dakota is a bit much to me. The Dev also says he hopes to add features in the future, like submarines, if sales are good.
However other than that, it's really fun, is very good visually and has an innovative combat system!
