Three stars, would've been four without the light blue screen of death. (And how'd it get to be February so fast? Was meaning to write that up all last month.)

Great review. My one quibble would be that you should mention that although the presentation / printing of the manual was weak, it was still a pretty good body of information, and explained things pretty well. Much better than some of the rump efforts we've seen lately, manual-wise.

Why thank you, and yes, very good point to make - have added a paragraph to that effect. I had meant to mention the designer's notes especially, but for some reason it slipped my mind when I finally got around to writing the thing. I blame the heat.

I'm having a bunch of fun with it, but I do miss most of the things you flag as things which somebdy might. My ideal would be something more along the lines of Grigsby's old PacWar, which for me had pretty much just the right level of detail for a pac theatre strategic game. Pity that he went the WITP route, instead of revamping PacWar.

Ha! I just blamed snowing as the reason why I'll not be able to visit a local software house. The World is a big place :o)
Great review, well done. Good to point out the lone carrier kamikaze missions, that needs to be fixed.
Pity about your blue screen of death. Obviously the videos of the dusky maidens causing the crash as soon as they start playing. It must be a video driver issue. We can see them fine.

You mean those navy babes who undress completely as soon as you sink the Shokaku and Zuikaku ? Well, it is a bit X-rated so if Mike's mum installed a nanny program on his pc it's normal it blanks out at that point :)
