Greetings everybody.

I had gotten bitten the bug to try to get many of my old DOS and WIndows 95/98 games running on my Windows 10 machine. When I got to Aces of the Deep having dug up my CD (still have the box, manual and map) searches on the web led me to here.

With the help from the posters here I have AoDCD running on my Win10 x64 (DOSBox).

I also learned about Command Aces of the Deep from this forum and picked up a CD from eBay. Because of the challenges I have this running on Win98SE hosted on VirtualBox VM and DOSBoa SVM Daum as well as on my Win7 Pro x32 system.

I also have Borderbrund's Wolfpack (on CD) and Epyx's Sub Battle Simulator (on 5.25" floppy)! I don't think I'll try installing the latter. I think I still have a working 5.25" drive but too much trouble to hook it up.

I look forward to gleaning tips on play as well as sharing my experiences.

I had forgotten how addicting AOD could be!
