I have been wargaming since the late '60's. My first wargame was Luftwaffe and it was only available mailorder direct from Avalon Hill. The thrill my pre-teen imagination felt in opening that box has rarely been equaled. A few games have satisfied the hunger. The original Carriers at War was one of them. This game is a true descentdant of that inspired original. The gameplay is virtually the same--the thrill IS the same. Very few games capture this old imagination and continue to hold it through countless hours. For the first time in Lord knows how many years, I stayed up until 4 a.m., sinking ships, saving the Arizona from certain destruction, and arming Japanese dive bombers for a strike on Port Moresby. For those of us who consider ourselves wargaming veterans, this game is Valhalla. For anyone born after Pong, welcome to our world. You missed a lot, didn't you?
