Summary: AN EXCELLENT REPRESENTATION OF MODERN NAVAL COMBAT
Review: Although it is growing dated, Jane's Fleet Command is the most complete war at sea simulation currently available. This is a great game for a low price.

Summary: great game with only a few flaws
Review: Fleet Command is an excellent simulation of naval operations. The major flaw is that because it concentrates on naval warfare the land based parts of it are lacking. For example there is only one type of SAM unit (the 1960s SA-6) and a lot of the world's aircraft have been left out. However if a modern fleet sim is what you are looking for, Fleet Command is the right game for you. I just can't wait until they decide to come out with a WWII version:)

Summary: Fleet Command.............. Blows!
Review: I THOUGHT THAT IN THE GAME(BY THE WAY IT WAS ADVERTISED)I WOULD BE IN CONTROLL OF A SHIP,IN THE NAVY,FIGHTING OFF THE ENEMY. I WAS TERRIBLY MISTAKEN. THE GAME CONSISTS OF A BUNCH OF BLUE AND YELLOW DOTS. YOU(THE BLUE DOTS) HAVE TO KILL OFF THE YELLOW DOTS. THERE ARE BASICALLY NO GRAPHICS, AND TO CONTROLL ONE SHIP IS VERY DIFFICULT. DID I MENTION THAT YOU ARENT IN CONTROLL OF ONE SHIP,EITHER,YOU'RE IN CONTROLL OF A FLEET. THE IDIOTS THAT MANAGED TO PUT THIS TOGETHER MUST'VE BEEN HIGH WHEN THEY CAME UP WITH THE BASIS. OVERALL, I AM SAYING,THAT THIS GAME IS THE WORST I'VE COME ACROSS IN A LONG TIME.THE CONTROLLS ARE MESSED UP,THERE ARE NO GRAPHICS,AND(GET THIS)THERE IS NO INSTUCTION BOOKLET TO LET YOU KNOW HOW TO PLAY. IT'S JUST A GREAT BIG GUESSING GAME FROM THE BEGINNING. TAKE MY ADVICE,PLEASE,DONOT,I REPEAT DONOT PURCHASE THIS GAME.

Summary: Ducks in a shooting gallery, you are the duck,
Review: Poorly designed campaign and scenario setup. Each one starts with the enemy knowing exactly where you are. If they havent already opened fire, they will in a few moments. There are far too many neutral ships & planes around and near your force. Hit one and you lose a lot of points. Problem is you have to seperately identify them because at the start of each campaign you don't know who they are. (how realistic is that??) You can't change the weapons load on the planes which means if you use a US aircraft carrier, you have a grand total of 4 strike planes. You have to get the update from Janes website to allow your ships to do things like engage missiles automaticaly.

Summary: Awesome addicting strategy !
Review: This is an all-time great. Easy to learn, great simple interface and very addicting naval warfare action. You can zoom the views to see the action up close, instead of just watching icons and symbols...the guy who gave it 1 star needs to learn how to play or go back to nintendo. He is in error in his statements about a US carrier only having 4 strike planes and that ships dont automatically fire in defense against missiles...in no time you will have DOZENS of planes in the air at once as you control your massive strike force with relative ease!

Summary: I bet the US Navy are using a simulator like this
Review: This is by far the best Navy warfare simulation you can find, unless you are in the military. It runs completely in real-time, provided a real-time battle field situation. You get to combat with numerous navy ships and weaponries in the world. It contains many will-it-happen situations such as a coalition defends Taiwan strait from invading Chinese navy, US navy clashes with the Russians. Real life battles such as gulf war are included as well. The real-time battle situation is provided in 3-D graphics. You can watch the USS Nimitz launches her fighter squadrons, missle, a SM-2 intercepts a Russian supersonic anti-ship missle. All in true-to-life detail, and it requires very little system resource to run it in great smoothness. The interface is designed for easy use of almost anyone. Every action can be done by mouse click.

Summary: One of the best strategic games i have played
Review: When i first got this game i was intruiged by the somewhat challenging, at first, missions and the amazing eye candy graphics. I must admit seeing the things explode on the screen really got me in the mood. Yet, after a while the single mission are quite simple and the campains, while more challenging, took way to long. I read another review on this site and it said that the game did not have a time compression button. Then after constantly waiting while playing the first campain I found the time compression button that supposedly wasn't there. So now the campains are five times faster. The other problem with the game was the difficulty with the missions. After reading a review, he gave me and idea that the best thing to do was line up the U.S. fleet against the Russians and watch the "Rockets Read Glare the Bombs Bursting in Air". After doing this i found the game much more entertaining, and a new challenge of creating difficult mission arose. This game ...is a must if you love war and strategic games as I.

Summary: One of the best games ever
Review: WOW! This game is absolutely amazing, the graphics are pretty good, the action is almost too much to handle at times. The other reviewer is sorely mistaken. I had no manual and I easily found out how to use this game. You left click to select and right click to make the unit move and attack. If you right click on the unit, you will be able to select from a whole menu of choices like weapons, pick a weapon, then right click on an enemy unit to attack. When you click on a unit a picture of the unit appears in a box in the bottom center of the screen, this is a real-time display of the unit too. If you hit F3 the picture takes the place of the tactical overlay and the tactical overlay in put in the picture's old spot. Hit F1 to get a handy help menu which tells you which buttons do what.I have found that YOU CAN CHANGE THE TACTICAL OVERLAY. What I mean is that instead of looking at the little "Blue dots" the other guy was talking about, you can see little pictures of the ships. THESE PICTURES ARE CHEESY. But if you want to change them, simply right click on the tactical overlay, without anything selected and a menu will pop up, select 3-D icons, and you will get the little pictures. The yellow dots are unknowns and if you select a unit then right click on the yellow dot it will identify it, however your unit must first move in close enough to see the yellow dot, if the dot changes to green it is neutral, if it changes to red, then it is enemy. Bottom line this game is addictive and fun, this was my first game of this sort of set-up and it is easy to use, I hope I helped you out with this review.
