Hi-

Seriesly thinking of buying Harpoon 3 or Haproon 3 CE but have no idea what the differences are. . What are the big differnces betqween the two games? Can I edit and import the different community battlesets and scenarios?

I played Janes fleet command for a long time and loved the naval warfae sim. Also played Harpoon 2 with minitures. Can anybody offer some advice?

Thanks-

Scott

It is possible to import and edit community databases and scenarios in either version of the game.

Harpoon Classic Commanders' Edition (HCE) is a similar, but different game than ANW.  It is like the two sports, squash and racquetball.  Very similar in many ways (i.e. ball, racquet, and court), but they implement in different ways.  The best way to decide for yourself is probably to spend an hour with each of the demos.  You will likely find the one you prefer at the end of it.

There is a demo available for ANW.  It is now expired, but if you dial your system clock back to January 1, 2009, I think that you can still run it.
