Battle Fleet 2: WW2 Naval Strategy
 
Hi everyone, I'm the designer of Battle Fleet 2, the sequel to a turn-based naval strategy game. Battle Fleet 2 is now available for PC, Mac, iPad and Android Tablets. It has been completely redone from the ground up with 3D graphics, open-world campaigns, cross-platform multiplayer and much more!

Here's a preview video:

We've had some great press so far:
"Battle Fleet 2 stacks up very nicely." 8/10 - Pocket Gamer
"I could get on board with this" - Rock, Paper, Shotgun
"Naval Combat Simulator with Depth" - IGM
"Overall, this is a great app" 4.5/5 - AppAdvice
"impressed with the surprisingly diverse gameplay" - Mouse n Joypad
"best naval combat game on the market" 9.2/10 - Game Players Review

Find out more about the game at: http://www.battlefleetgame.com/

** I'm also giving away a free copy of the game (either iPad, Mac or PC version) to the 3 people who reply to this post with the most interesting naval image/photo from WW2 pacific theater (photos of ships, aircraft, subs) by midnight PST August 4th 2014. Submit only 1 photo each please. **

And if you have any feedback or questions of the game feel free to ask here as well.

I know it's past the submission date but I was hoping that since nobody has posted any pictures yet I could still get in on it.

This is from the USS Intrepid archives. Officers and enlisted men being interred into the sea after a Japanese bombing attack in the Philippines, Nov 26th 1944.

I hope so too. Does it have to be a picture, or does a video count?

I found that photo in the book The Carrier War by Clark G. Reynolds

I am really interested to see what pictures other people come up with.

The above image doesn't always load, so I'll go with my other favorite picture from WW2, Murderer's Row, at the anchorage at Ulithi.

Reminds me of the days I would spend playing Carriers At War on my C64.
