Here is the initial shot of Mystery Subsim #44
http://www.subsim.com/mystery/ms44ab.gif

Be the first to guess correctly the name of this subsim or naval game and have your name added to the prize pool.

If you guess, and you are wrong, then you have used one of your three wrong guesses alloted to each player. Each player gets only three wrong guesses in the whole contest before your participation ends, so guess wisely (if you are really sure). If you don't know, don't waste a guess! :) You can only guess incorrectly three times in the contest.

You cannot EDIT your post in this contest. An edited or deleted post counts as a guess.

Remember the rules!! (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=143829)

If no one tries to guess this shot, or no one guesses correctly, there will be an expanded shot to follow.

Good hunting!

I think so, although the memory is a little foggy on that one, the only naval game I ever took back to the store!

It is the very same, Hunt for Red October

About the game:

Taken from Tom Clancy's career-launching novel, The Hunt For Red October attempts to follow the general plot of the book. This means that you are to head west and escape all the ships of the USSR as well as appear ready to defect to the United States. The graphics were EGA only (unless updated later). The joystick is used, but very difficult to control. The graphics and screen layouts were very poor in general. HFRO didn't enjoy any lasting success as a subsim.

Nicely done, Sonarman is 1 away from becoming our third Ace!
