ANW Command Card

<r> A few weeks ago when I was playing around with the demo (before I'd started posting on the frum) I had some free time at work and pieced toegther a command card from the manual. It was a good way to learn how to render keyboard keys in InDesign, and I needed something like that anyway.<br/>

The decision to buy Harpoon

RE: Soviet Naval Tactics

Then Milan Vego's book, "Soviet Naval Tactics", is definitely something you want to read.

Communication modeling

<t> I was just wondering how much modeling of various communication systems goes into the game. Both basic communications as well as differences between Link 11 and Link 16 (not to mention modeling of differences before Link 11 was in widespread use). Does the game allow for this level of detail ...
