Interactive Magic have released a series of patches and seem committed to make this game robust. Well-detailed representation of modern naval warfare. Over 200 scenarios to play, or design your own scenarios. Vast array of ships, subs, aircraft and weapon systems to play with. Action can get very tense.
Ships can run aground rather blindly.
Once upon a time naval combat involved huge wooden ships going broadsides to blast each other with close range cannons. In the modern arena, naval conflicts are won and lost at distance, with missile systems which have ranges well beyond the visible horizon. Harpoon Classic 97 puts you in the hotseat, where each decision can be critical to your mission success. Harpoon as a series has been around for years. You can still pick up the original game very cheaply if you look hard enough.
