I'm wondering if anyone (preferably from Australia or Asia of at least not North America) has purchased physical copies of Harpoon Ultimate and what sort of delivery delays you had?

<t> SPOILER ALERT.<br/>
My carrier group is dead in the water 225 nm SE of North Vietnam port and two air bases. I set off at a creep along my tight patrol course.<br/>
I have on deck ready to fly Intercept, SEAD, recon and precision bombing loadouts, so lets look around with a vigilante RA-5c ...

<t> I expect you'll get more in depth replies from more experienced people in due course, but if you happen to have a gander before then my comments would be that detecting subs is always hard, and that's as it should be.<br/>
If you're steaming at 19 knots in suspect waters, I'd try 12 at most ...

<t> My understanding is that subs are in reality difficult to detect, that is why they are so fearsome.<br/>
Subs under control of AI (your opponent) also seem to me to be perhaps the best used of the various platforms, sometimes the AI can be a little stupid about some things but with the subs it ...

Could you start with the ship grounded?
You'd have the added fun (?) of getting it refloated.

<t> Two scenarios, one for red play and one for blue, based on the situation leading up to the WWII Battle for the Coral Sea. Game play and available ships prevent an exact reproduction but it is some where in the ball park, and I think you'll enjoy it.<br/>
Play in Westpac battleset using database ...

<t> Thanks for your support Tony, I'm sure if I need to I'll manage my computer situation.<br/>
In fact I'm most concerned that I think the compulsory bundling is not the best approach from the point of view of the computer harpoon family of games.<br/>
The programs are quite big compared to a lot ...

<t> I'm concerned about the actual size of a download that includes all of this stuff (as good as it sounds).<br/>
I don't have time to devote to both games and I don't have room on my computer to install further large programs, I also don't much like the idea of having to download a very large ...

Looks like I made it a bit too easy, here's a remake with better blue victory conditions (and some extra surprises)[8D]

<t> A modification of a previous scenario of mine to play with F35Bs on Australia's proposed LHD - "HMAS Canberra". There are some F35As you can ferry up from East Sale to Darwin for comparison.<br/>
Use WESTPAC battleset and standard database HCDB 100308 or later.<br/>
Thanks to Skyhawk1 for the ...

<r> Hi SteveD, (Love the photos)<br/>
While it isn't what you originally asked for if you go to Harpgamer, in the battleset section of downloads and get my "Australia Battleset" - game two "they keep coming" has the LHD Canberra and some F35Bs (and F35Cs). You'll have to ferry them over to Stirling ...

<t> I must confess the Devonport ships are a distraction, but they're something to defend so you might think about how many harriers to ferry down to the action.<br/>
I haven't managed to get my carrier to port yet, so you are one up on me, most of the groups have variable start points and I always ...

<t> Hi bjlee77,<br/>
Its a budget thing. missiles with live warheads cost a lot of money and those with a dummy (decoy) don't cost so much. Throw a stack of decoys out in front of the live (expensive) ones and with luck a lot of the SAMs, point defence etc will take out the decoys and let more of ...

<t> Hi,<br/>
while I'm sure tony will get you sorted once you get the saved scenario to him, I thought I'd just pop in my comment.<br/>
I see these messages sometimes when I've stuffed up a bit, either opening a scenario in the wrong battleset, having the wrong database (commondb.res) file in the ...

<t> I agree with what Tony has said and would add that in playing harpoon I also like to think about what the computer enemy is able to do and try not to get an unfair advantage (unless it looks like its going to win-damm blast it!!). So in this case I'd try to return to home base for reloading ...

<br/>
Thank you sir, much cleaner and easier to follow in the debugger. I should have some thoughts later today. <br/>
<br/>
By the way, that scenario was terribly addicting. It took me nearly three hours to stop playing your save, talk about ...

<t> Hi Guy,<br/>
I've seen weapon launch straight after aircraft launch in this situation, not the going out to max weapon range, what version of the game are you using and is it the supplied database?<br/>
Can you upload your saved game here (or at harpgamer) so we can all have a look? <br/>
Don ...

<QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: smitty<br/>

<br/>
I have only been playing the first 3 battlesets (.sc1, .sc2, .sc3 ). I have noticed that, occasionally, aircraft that I have given an order (using Fn 3) to go to a location and loiter (using Fn2 ) ignore the loiter order. I don't have ...

<QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>So, how do you all want it, reset to the head of the aircraft class listing after adding aircraft to platform, or leave the last selected aircraft class selected after adding aircraft to a platform?
<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>
My vote also goes for the last selected ...
