Reception

John Miller reviewed Heart of Oak: Naval Miniatures for the Age of Fighting Sail in Space Gamer No. 71.[1] Miller commented that "Heart of Oak can be recommended to those gamers who want to adventure in a universe that, although familiar from our history books, is also as exciting, heroic, and deadly as any fantasy universe ever imagined."[1]

gollark: But this is also stupid. You probably won't actually spend ages thinking about it and enjoying it. There are much more efficient ways to get excitement in terms of fun/£.
gollark: Anyway, some argue that with the lottery, you're really paying for the excitement of maybe (low-probability) winning lots of money.
gollark: Sell for less money, possibly.
gollark: I mean, obviously speaking you pay £2 or so for a tiny probability of lots more money, but the expected value is negative still.
gollark: Playing the lottery is mostly stupid, though.
