Any naval warfare buffs here?
« on: December 12, 2008, 09:10:35 AM »
You may remember  Norm Koger,  he of computer war game fame.  Well, he didn't drop off the face of the planet if you knew where to find him.

Anyway, Storm Eagle Studios is his new baby and boy, has he done some remarkable things with 3d and commercial naval warfare computer simulations.  Sights and sounds, and ballistics  are amazing...yes, you can see the 16" shells as they reach their zenith and 'hang' before continuing on, and they sound like freight trains as they whizz by (if you're lucky). I have the Russo-Japanese game, and enjoyed it immensely. He just released Jutland today.

As a kid, I had the AH board game for Jutland, and used to move the little ships around with the gauge on my ping pong table. Computers are so much easier, lol.


Here's a link to the Jutland screens, enjoy!

Anti: I think some of you gentleman would choose to apply a gun shaped remedy to any problem or potential problem that presented itself? Your reverance (sic) for firearms is maintained with an almost religious zeal. The mind boggles! it really does...

Me: Naw, we just apply a gun-shaped remedy to those extreme life threatening situations that call for it. All the less urgent problems we're willing to discuss.

Awesome!  I'm an Air Force guy but I love the naval big gun battles!
Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the American people's liberty teeth and keystone under independence. The very atmosphere of firearms everywhere restrains evil interference. - George Washington
