I could have easily accepted abrstaction in the time of flight and in ship movement between turns. I think most others could have, too.
And, secondary fire and torpedoes could have been abstracted to center the game on big guns. Certainly, shooting star shells could have been abstracted. Having to laboriously plot a routine star shell shoot is ridiculous.
The great pity is that all this ingenuity is just to give the no brains gamer crowd a nautical "Angry Birds". This is a fairly sad commentary. Everything was subordinated to the high-tech "Angry Birds", the shooting, the torps, the incredibly silly air game.
