Marshal Villars -> "Real Time" Carrier Battles? (12/7/2013 10:49:01 PM) Does anyone around here know of a "Real Time" carrier battle game? I want to do the battle of the Soloman Islands -- or Midway -- on a "real time" basis (with different speeds selectable)... kind of like the Command Ops system -- or Harpoon. But for WW2 naval battles.

GJK -> RE: "Real Time" Carrier Battles? (12/8/2013 1:53:55 AM) Highly recommend Tiller's "Midway". It's the best carrier battle game on the computer that I've played (doesn't beat Victory Games' "Carrier", but that's a boardgame). There will be sometimes long periods of inactivity but you can adjust the time compression. I like to keep it at real time and just let it play it. It may appear a bit daunting at first - controlling the types of planes and armaments and then assigning them on missions using a compass, but it's really simple to play once you've played a scenario or two.

Rising-Sun -> RE: "Real Time" Carrier Battles? (12/10/2013 8:13:15 PM) There arent many good naval battle sims out there, I have been trying to improve Pacific Storm: Allies for years and it has it limits. If you want realism, then dont bother with Battlestation Midway/Pacific. But there one isnt that bad, but old and need DOSBOX to run it and its called "Great Naval Battles III - Fury in the Pacific". I bought Carriers at War from Matrix and didnt like it. Your best bet would be Great Naval Battle Series! Here link to google image on Great Naval Battles... https://www.google.com/search?q=great+naval+battles&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=CoSnUujcIIO3kAfEsoHIAQ&ved=0CCkQsAQ&biw=1440&bih=795#imgdii=_ You may have to do some research on what you are looking for.
