Maricosom is proud to announce a complete mod for Destroyer Command:

For more information you can visit http://www.forum.maricosom.net (http://www.forum.maricosom.net/)


This is an expansion pack for the videogame Destroyer Command (Ubi Soft), realized by the Maricosom.net-Sperem development group, with the determining contribution of external collaborators.
The development team is composed of about 30 people, among which some collaborators coming from the European Union, Canada, etc. (see the file "MN_Collaboratori_e_crediti.pdf" for details)
Mare Nostrum is a tactical naval simulation, placed during the 2nd World War.
This expansion pack, even though it's using the structure and the engine of Destroyer Command, completely modifies and re-interpret the original simulator according to italian models and ideas.

The missions and the campaign are set to be played from the Italian side.
All the actions develop in the period that goes from June 10th 1940 and September 8th 1943 and and are set in the Mediterranean sea theater.

You will Command the small MAS as far as Battleship

12 Mission Mediterranian Campaign (Career) ?
Only the "Atlantic" & "Pacific" Campaign is there?
Did I do something wrong or is it under the single missions?
Thanx

Somewhere I read that MN Campaign will come later, due to some testing problems.

I miss the Capitani Romani class light cruisers, but apart from that, very nicely done. Excelent work :up: .

Maybe, it would be better to use something like this for the Italian AA-gun view

Sergei
It's a very good idea....

:sunny:

@oldman and Japlance

We haven't insert campain for a reason.

In single mission you can command up 16 ship and above all you can use in the same mission a several type of ship

DD, Battleship, cruiser...

In the campaing you can usa only a type of ship (only DD, only Cruiser etc.)

So we have favourite in this time the single mission....

:up: :p :D

I am gonna go ahead & make myself a campagin. I once took Silent Hunter 2 & put 2 campagins together & it worked so i suppose d.c. isn't that much of a difference? My question is is the historic missions the ones yaw was gonna make the campaign with "MN01 Punta Stilo to MN14 Cicogna"?
thanx
Roy
also what is the 2 missions under the "OLD" folder, MN04 Corsaro & MN15 Colpo di coda?
by the way thanx for the great mod :D

The progressive numbers of the historical missions, from 01 to 14, point out the sequence of the time, from June 10th 1940 to September 8 th 1943.

The missions MN04 and MN15 in the folder "old", are not historical to sufficiency to be able to be in the folder "historical".
If you wants, can put it in the folder "single".

We have tried to build the Campaign with MN01-MN14, but the operation was not satisfactory, because of the numerous unities "human" different between them.
In the next future, it will be necessary to refer these missions to succeed in getting a good result.
We could not delay the pubblication of the mod to allow a good testing of the Campaign.

In a sentimental mood I enter the classic subsim section from time to time and now I've discovered this mod which inspired me to reinstall DC on my outdated PC again. Love your Q-Ship! There are many, many hours of work in your remarkable mod.

Question:

I remember once upon a time (years ago) when some more people in this forum were working on capital ship missions for DC there was a problem with the AI ships to attack player ships early enough, especially in long distance scenarios (BB vs BB), which are often better handled by the AI in the older FS or even GNBNA in my oppinion. Those AI ships in DC, even being under attack, would sometimes just sail along without using their guns. :ping: As far as I remember this could be solved by some modification to relevant unit files (e.g. adding historical incorrect radars to ship files, increasing the max range of guns to unrealistic values etc.). Did you note this sometimes strange AI behaviour too and if yes how did you try to cope with it?

Is it still able to get mod somewhere? Did somebody got a backup?
