Great game rediscovered

I played Harpoon many years ago and recently tried HCE.
What a great game it is ! Challenging and immersive with a huge number of scenarios to choose from.
I finished two nail biting scenarios in Harpoon Designer Series 1 : "Cut the Sickle"(GIUK) and "The Other Canal"(Med). As Blue I had my butt kicked by the AI in both but I certainly learned a lot about modern naval warfare.
Many thanks to the developers and designers and to TonyE for keeping this superb game alive.
Thanks also to StalinTC for his sound mod. The one thing that used to drive me crazy in the original Harpoon was the awful tinny sound when aircraft are destroyed.Much more satisfying sound with the sound mod.
