5th Fleet (pc game)

Kind Seas · 09-23-06, 07:59 PM

I just found the pc game 5th Fleet (pc version of an old Avalon Hill game) on a CD-ROM collection that just recently arrived - I thought that I would never get to play that great game again

FYI - found it at http://l33tgam3rz.net/lgcollection.html on #8

came with a fantastic DOS Emulator that so far works great in XP pro

Now I am trying some of my old dos games on that dusty shelf behind the new ones...lol

I have several of the fleet series board games...iirc, they're under the Victory games label (a subsidiary of AH at the time). Played the hell out of 'em back in the day.

I had heard about the pc game, but never saw it for sale anywhere, then forgot about it. I'm curious...how does it look by today's standards?

Yes, some screenshots, please, would be nice! 2nd Fleet and - not to the same degree - 6th Fleet were two of my favourite cosims in the 80s.
