This is where Dangerous Waters hit the sweet spot. The game was not "dumbed down", rather the graphics added to the immersion and made it feel like you were really there observing the action. Your game looks to be right on that same track. Well done.

Apologies on the late response!

There is a single "focus" platform at any given time, though you can issue orders to any platform under your command by a map screen and switch between platforms under your command. In that way, it's a bit like Dangerous Waters with whatever platform you have focused at the moment (though of course not quite as in-depth as DW, switching to a ship allows a far greater level of control) and more like Fleet Command in regards to controlling the other platforms under your command.

Platforms, of course, being a ship, submarine, aircraft, helo, or even land installation. Early Access will probably only have ships at first, but the rest will come.

Whoa !!!! I have missed this announcement!!

This looks awesome !. Jane‘s Fleet Command was one of my favourite naval sims of all times and I have been missing something like this for years.
I have not found an equivalent in CMANO, great game but the lack of graphics and the time mechanics „realtime vs pause“ have not hooked me with it.

I am really looking forward for Blue Water and I will buy it the minute it becomes avalaible.



I have enjoyed reading the narrative to describe the scenario before Third world war including Andropov letter.
Your attention to detail will ensure this is a great success.
