War On The Sea.What is WOTS, Forest ? Google says "World of Technology & Science" but i guess those screenies come from something else, right ?.....![]()
Not in this one. You can zoom in fairly close, but that's just about right as the models are not to the level of super close inspection. In fact, my only complaint about WOTS since day one is that all of the aircraft that historically have twin guns in their turrets, only have one barrel showing. You can see that in the screens above.Thanks, Forest ! Once i had a similar sort of game but the thing i liked most about it was the 'Museum Mode' with which you could just have a look at the ships from fairly close by. Does this WOTS game have something like that too ?
I just added this one to my Steam Wishlist. Thanks for the heads-up.There's a new, similar title coming from the resurrected MicroProse, Task Force Admiral. I've been following the development for a couple of years and it looks like a dream for those of us who enjoyed the tactical parts of "1942: Pacific Air War." (Though this one, again, doesn't let you actually fly the planes.)

They're launching a Kickstarter soon for a physical edition with 90's MicroProse-style box and manuals. It should have a lot more details on the game:
Tons of screenshots and information about the game, posted over the last 4 years, on my favorite non-sim gaming forum (like S-O, mostly old farts who still fly sims and play games):

Hello there, Ladies & Gentlemen I sort of feel dirty to do so, but a few months ago I mentioned the game we’ve been working on in the grognard thread, and I was told that I’d better try to go for a thread of my own. Checking the rules I see that it isn’t discouraged as long as I provide some...forum.quartertothree.com
