Destroyer Command had scripted mission, as in SH2, but with a surface ship game it seemed okay, since they didn't get orders to sail into enemy territory alone and "Sink 'em all!"
In DC you had missions starting at Norfolk, escorting a task-force to Panama (all the while looking for nasty German u-boats, escorting tankers across the Pacific, joining a Dutch cruiser task-force through a nasty fight with Japanese surface forces (I never survived that one). Later on you took command of destroyer squadrons. Modders made some cool mini-campaigns for it, including ones where you ran Battleship groups, even Japanese; it was fun.
