Excerpt from The Fundamentals of Naval Tactics This work is a systematic codification in treatise form of the mathematical principles of Naval Tactics. The author is the instructor in the Art of Naval War at the Royal Italian Naval Academy, and his name is well known as the writer of a number of excellent articles of much original thought on naval tactics in the Revista Marittima. He is therefore well fitted for the task of reducing to the consecutive order and logical sequence, so necessary to the student, tactical principles and theorems. Tactics is an ever changing art; for while its scientific principles do not change, its rules necessarily change with changing conditions. No books on tactics will ever solve the problem finally, because the problem is forever changing; but if its methods are correct, these will ever be of value. Even if we do not agree with all the views of the author and of the other of his distinguished compatriots whose views he has here embodied, the work would be of value as expressing the Italian point of view; and Italy stands in the first rank of naval thought. As the title indicates, the book deals chiefly with the fundamentals, and approaches the subject more particularly from the mathematical side.

As part of the History of Wargaming Project's continuing wargaming 'archaeology', agreement was given to publish this set of rules as an example of the US Naval War College's use of wargaming as part of their curriculum in 1969. What is interesting about this set of rules is they are complete and they have a sample scenario which helps illuminate the thinking of the wargame designers. There are straightforward rules for surface-to-air missiles (SAMs), gunnery, air, torpedoes and mines etc. The use of these rules is clearly illustrated in the sample game. The rules were clearly written for others to play the game, even in the absence of the game designers. The sample game gives the background and briefings and the two sides ORBATs. Then it sets out the plans of the two sides. It goes on to set out how the game is setup, managed and played.
