I loved playing all of Peter Turcan's battlefield games, but this was the best. Simple graphocs, but a very clever game engine. Typing in the orders for your captains may have been a chore, but it was a great game to play, especially if you played a two handed game.
I still talk with my friend about our epic Hood v. Bismarck encounter. In a total reverse to history, his Hood sunk my Bismarck within the first five minutes. Lucky shot!
