Mystery Subsim #38

[Onkel Neal]

Here is the initial shot of Mystery Subsim #38



Be the first to guess correctly the name of this subsim or naval game and have your name added to the prize pool.

If you guess, and you are wrong, then you have used one of your three wrong guesses alloted to each player. Each player gets only three wrong guesses in the whole contest before your participation ends, so guess wisely (if you are really sure). If you don't know, don't waste a guess! You can only guess incorrectly three times in the contest.

You cannot EDIT your post in this contest. An edited or deleted post counts as a guess.

Remember the rules!!

If no one tries to guess this shot, or no one guesses correctly, there will be an expanded shot to follow.

Good hunting!
Neal

From the review by the highly esteemed Mr. Horsa:

Gamers scream for realism, but sales are driven by graphics. In that respect SOF will disappoint. It’s no SH3/4. In fact it’s so reminiscent of their predecessor SH2, that there were some (unfounded) suggestions that it had used the same game engine. On first sight the sea looks awful, but like a lot of these things you soon get used to its own peculiar atmosphere and I have to say I found myself feeling this really was the North Sea or the Atlantic. The dark dank misty atmosphere is well done, and there is a good representation of fog banks and bow spray (albeit done fairly crudely). Personally I don’t believe that raw graphic power always equates to better atmosphere. Sometimes graphic representation can be too literal and can simply serve to remind you that it is a computer simulation – something I feel with SH3/4 from time to time. With SOF you feel you are crashing about in a lot of unfriendly wetness even if it sometimes has a comic book feel to it.

How about that? 38 Mystery Subsims and still no repeats. And there won't be any repeats until after MS#50.... so that should help you narrow down the next 12. Process of elimination, and all. Possibly some intuitiveness, and even some savvy.

Enough dawdling! Mystery Subsim #39 is just over the horizon!
