RE: Harpoon!!

Has anyone heard from the guys at MATRIX on this project lately? I have a catalog which gives prices and order procedures, but it is not listed on this site!

<t>My first ship as I stated earlier was the Longbeach and she will always be my favorite, but I also served on a Leahy class. The USS Dale (CG-19). After NTU (New Threat Upgrade) they became ships with great AAW capabilities, the only problem is that by this time the hulls and propulsion plants ...

<r>Knavey, your CV listing for the Gulf War may have been correct except maybe the MIDWAY, I think she was already at the razor blade factory by this time. I think it was the Kitty Hawk. I also thing the America was laid up. I think that was the Big John. It was her last deployment before she was ...

<t>The cost of operating the IOWA's make them prohibitive. An Aegis class cruiser fitted out in the Land attack roll and protected by a couple of Arleigh Burke flight 2 DDG's can deliver a far more devestating blow. The BB's were great in there day but when the Aircraft Carrier came into being as ...

<r>I got one that wasn't listed on your list. Correct me if I am wrong. <br/>
Didn't the HMS Rodney have 10 x 16" 45 caliber main guns. She was extremely slow and actually obsolete, but she is credited with getting the first hits in the final confrontation with the Bismarck. I don't think she would ...

<r>ric27 your post said best battlecruiser "of all time", but as I voted in the poll, if limited to WW2 I think the Scharnhorst was the sleekest and best balanced of the Battlecruisers. My favorite Dreadnaught class of WW2 was the IOWA's and my favorite Heavy Cruisers were the Indianapolis class ...

MY FAVORITE WARSHIP

<r>My favorite is the first ship i served on. She was a ship with pride and a lot of first. She was the first Nuclear Powered Surface Warship, beating out the USS Enterprise by one month. She was the first warship commissioned without guns, although 2 5"38 were later added as was CIWS. She was the ...

<r>You know, this looks like this should be a theatre general's decision, and since the player is that general than it should be his decision. I feel that if in theatre the air picture is looking bad than I might be inclined to keep the planes in theatre, but if I think the other assets in theatre ...

THE BEST BATTLECRUISER OF ALLTIME

<t>Since things advance through time and the way I read this thread the best Battlecruiser of all time was the Soviet Navy's KIROV class 26,000 ton, Top speed 35+ knots, 16 SSN-19 ASCMs, two twin 130 mm dual purpose guns, SA-N-6, SA-N-9 SAMs and various other weapons that I can't list right now ...

MAPS

<r>In UV I ended up purchasing a topographical map and little postits to give me some idea of what the computer is up to and it seems to help but a HEX map that matches the one in the game with counters would be a really great addition to the game.<br/>

CHIMING IN

<t>I am not nearly the wargamer many of you guys are, but I am willing to pay the $70.00 or $80.00 the game will garner when it comes out even though this will exceed my gaming budget for the year since I am also purchasing C&C Generals and Larry Bond's Harpoon IV. The reason I am willing to spend ...

Game Prices

<t>This is a good idea, but what I ended up doing with UV is buying a map of the area a blank hex sheet and blank counters. Yep you can still find them. I then ended up buying pins for I found it easier to just post locations directly on the map instead of trying to transpose the map to the hex ...

minelaying submarines

Do you gain any advantage using more than one sub per TF when using submarines to lay mines in enemy ports? Or any port for that matter?
