Action Stations! 4.2 is a redesign by Andrew Finch and Alan Butler of an older edition by David Manley.

I was looking for rules and data for amphibious landings during World War 1, the Ukrainian Civil Wars, and the Russian Civil Wars: Tanga, Gallipoli, Trabzond, Moon Sound, Taganrog, and others.

Action Stations! includes rules for light naval combat during World Wars 1 and 2. It includes data for a wide range of World War 2 craft, a few World War 1 craft, and some light coastal ordnance. It does not yet include rules for amphibious landings, or the X-lighter, Bolinder, or Elpidifor-class landing craft.

Action Stations! does not include any scenarios, either.

I don't feel I can judge the game as the designers intended it, so I'm giving it a default 3 stars. But I hope this can help other people considering the game.

Ships are rated for:

1. Class, 2 values, indicating size and manueverability.

2. Hull Boxes, indicating sturdiness. This value appears to use a construction quality value x the square root of the full displacement. This value also appears compatible with the Steamer Wars trilogy, also by David Manley.

3. Speed, 4 values, in knots.

4. Weapons, including info on firing arcs and armor for each weapon.

5. Notes.
