The Ancient Art of War at Sea is a computer wargame developed by Broderbund and released for Mac and MS-DOS in 1987 as a sequel to The Ancient Art of War. The game is a simulation of naval combat set in the late 18th century. However, the historical opponents which the players have to face lived between the 16th century and the early 19th century. These hostile game characters include Alonso de Guzmán y Sotomayor, 7th Duke of Medina Sidonia (the commander of the Spanish Armada), Maarten Tromp (called "Martin" in the game), Blackbeard, John Paul Jones, and Horatio Nelson, 1st Viscount Nelson.
