I really loved the whole scenario. It's the only time I've read a book with a ton of characters, outside of LOTR, that I wasn't incredibly confused.

- josephlord 13y agoYes although you only played the (attack) submarine thread of the story your success or failure was reflected in the balance of the war shown on a world map if I remember correctly.
- acheron 13y agoRight. You would get a mission as the attack sub to, say, sink a Russian ship transporting Marines to Norway. If you failed, then the Russians would start occupying Norway on the map. Was a very cool dynamic campaign for the time.
