It will run under Win98 just fine. My computer is a P2 Celeron at 300 mhz and that's a hair too fast for good playing. I bought it for my first computer which was a Epson XT (10 mhz, 20 Meg HD, Dos 3.3, Soundblaster/Adlib card and a CGA monitor.)

Epyx Sub Battle Simulator will run fine on my new computer. Silent Service 1 is too fast but Silent Service 2 works great as long as I keep the sound off (it never like Windows handling the sound!). AOD hates Win anything, but CAOD works fine
under Win98.

I have some photos of the original box, I'll scan them and post them.

A delayed answer is better than no answer! This was my first subsim game in 1992 (IBM 8086-VGA card). Yes, not bad! Although my box was diffrent.

Ive played wolfpack a lot when i was a child. i had an 8086 cga, but the game requeriments were higher, very low fps :p

For its day, it had a great multiplayer.

I got my first subsim when I was 4 or 5, I think it was that game Silent Service anyone remember when games came on these.


Then in 2001 (i think) I got SH1, was quite fun. Didnt know about SH2 Last year I found SH4, I had to get it. I couldnt go to that store without takeing a look at it again. Then oneday I asked my mom if she would get it for me and she said yes. I got SH3 after finding where I could get it. (UBI digital download). I have always been intrested in Ships, Subs, and WW2.

My very first u-boat game was out of one of those computer magazines, and it was in basic. You had to type all of it into the computer, debug it, then you could play.
It was on a vic-20 and the game was on a cassette tape.

Now that is old!

This would have been fun to play at the subsim shin dig.

OLD !!! My first computer used a wood fire for a power supply. And the game was chizeled on stone. :p Anyone got an older rig than that ?

Nice video for those who haven't seen Wolfpack :
