They sure don't make 'em like they used to, that's all I've got to say.

Fortunately for us we have folks around here who enjoy creating these monster mods and overhauling the whole friggin thing....btw, I just started using TW as I am a GW fan, and I love just as much...I have been trying to manually add some of the features from one to the other because I can't decide which one I like better.
I even had a CAOD notebook just to play it. While I have rose coloured glasses on when I remember AOD & COAD I still know that it had plenty of warts that needed fixing. But, it was I feel better than anything up to SHIII.

Welcome aboard!

Not to get further off topic but I had a very entertaining AOD career just a couple of months ago - until I met my end off the Irish coast. The immersion factor for that game is just amazing - also, as I mentioned on another thread, the merchant models and randomized tonnage were very impressive for their time.

I know. I missed that randomized tonnage in all of the Silent Hunter games. At least the open-source dev team of Danger from the Deep resurrected it.:p

Depends entirely on what you consider to be realism.

So far indications suggest that NYGM is the more difficult of the two.

Does anyone know if running decks awash make any difference in visual detection by the AI?
