Yay! Game is out! Been playing it a couple hours yesterday. It's quite a bit harder than pacific fleet. Not a bad thing IMO. The gloomy weather did make me long for the pacific tho.
I do not like the retreating mechanic much. While it makes sense for a damaged shop to pop smoke and gtfo it gets on my goat that they suddenly are wtfhard to hit and pop out of existence after a couple of turns.
What I'd like is that there be a couple more rules to this. A distance check. Need to get the damaged ship out of range before popping out of existence. A speed check. The fleeing ship needs to be able to outrun it's pursuers in its current state or it stays in the game. Lastly there needs to be a let em go button to stop protracted chases.
Anyway cheers on a great game guys! Having a ball with it (despite a certain big Polish PC game)
