NWS' Steam and Iron Released

NWS new WW1 naval game Steam and Iron released last night for digital download.

Game ships with a scenario editor and ship editor allowing the player to design their own warships or add those not included in the database.

Simple graphics, top-down map view with global geographical data and the ability to create scenarios anywhere in the world. Very simple GUI, includes fog of war and command-control limitations that reflect period doctrine and communications. Have so far played Coronel and HMAS Sidney vs. SMS Emden with gratifyingly reasonable results.

Steam and Iron

Includes submarines and mines, there is no aircraft as yet and a campaign addon is being discussed. Definitely worth a look for those interested in the era and even after a very short acquaintance have had more enjoyment than SES' Jutland or Distant Guns have ever provided.

Hope to prepare a detailed review in a couple of days.
