This looks like a very appealing game system. A computer assisted Naval Combat System for table top gaming, using miniatures or cardboard counters.You enter in the unit attacking, the ship that's being attacked, and the software gives you the results. I wonder if factors like; move allowance compared to ship's damage, or aircraft are included. I've been shopping for a Tactical naval rules system, this might be it!
