Ah yea, now THAT's a real oldie. I suppose it's all relative.

One nice plus about these, though, is that they were built for Windows 95 and thus require no tricks to run on XP.

I don't know if I'd be able to, say, get back into an old simulator now - however much I loved Silent Service - but a wargame is a different deal. And OtR/AS, to me, still seem fresh enough 10 years on. In fact, ironically I find them about the same graphically as the much more recent Navy Field that's advertised at the top of the page here!
