Battleship: Fleet Command.


About the game:

Quote:
Ah, Battleship. Many thirty- and forty-somethings likely have fond memories of sitting at a kitchen table with a friend or sibling, and opening up the plastic game that faces away from your opponent. Oh the fun in yelling out "B - 2!" and watching your rival's face sour, meaning it was a direct hit on their fleet. Your goal, of course, is to blow the enemy out of the water before they can do the same. And who could forget that timeless and cheesy line from the commercial: "Hey, you sank my battleship!"
Fast-forward to the 21st century and iWin has converted this classic Hasbro board game into a digital download. The result is Battleship Fleet Command, which includes the original game of naval strategy as well as a bonus mode with new rules and weapons. It's missing one major feature, but as with iWin's resurrection of Risk, this Battleship remake is fun and nostalgic.

Alas, the brave young Dowly was KIA, sniff. Ah, well,... moving along, Mystery Subsim #48--watch for it! Do it for Dowly!
