Guy's,

I would like to see a civil war game based on Yaquinto's old Ironclads. I was made for computer with all the dice rolls you had to do. I think it would be very popular and people would mod it to death.

Thanks

Not exactly what you are seeking but it is Civil War Ironclads

The modeling on that game looks fantastic, it's something I'll be keeping my eye on in the future, thanks. I'd still like to see one of the geniuses [8D] at Matrix do something based on Yaquinta's Ironclads.

That game looks pretty good wonder when they will get it done?




JudgeDredd -> RE: Civil War naval (6/27/2008 2:48:47 PM)

That is a sexy looking game...but surely a Civil War naval game has limited playability??

Actually, Ironclads was really a lot of fun. Much more to it than you would think.




Perturabo -> RE: Civil War naval (7/2/2008 7:53:42 PM)

It looks interesting. I wonder what are going it's system requirements to be.




sadja -> RE: Civil War naval (7/2/2008 10:08:39 PM)

Ironclads was a great game, just too many dice rolls if you had much more than a couple of ships. The best games were with the little gunboats. You ploted your turns then fired, roll to hit, on a range chart, roll to where you hit[&:], roll for penatration or damage[8|],roll for penatration damage, [8|]roll for critical hits and then roll for critical hit damage[X(]. Like I said made for computer, you would get carpal tunnel in one afternoon.[:)][:D]

They have a demo out now of Civil War Ironclads

http://www.totemgames.ru/main_en.html 

I won't have  a chance to try it tonight....post your thougths if you get to it.

Not quite an ironclad, but I'm reading an interesting book right now on the CSS Shenandoah that I'll recommend here.   Last Flag Down by John Baldwin and Ron Powers.  2007.  Lots of detail about life on the ship.  If you don't know, Shenandoah was a sail/steam commerce raider, rather like CSS Alabama, that was the last Confederate belligerent to strike her flag, after circumnavigating the globe in 1864-65.

I downloaded the Demo but it doesn't it doesn't seem to want to operate using Vista.
