This has become my favourite naval strategy game ever.
Really like the targeting system and range/power of the weapons.
Encountered a small bug where one of my cruisers could not turn, there was no orange arc range - just a blue fixed arc.
Had to sail it straight ahead out of play.
But other then that it's very stable and great fun to play.

A wholehearted recommendation for anyone wishing to add this to there collection.

It has in the graphic, 77 submarines!

I had no idea they lost that many subs.

Digging and saw this: Estimation of What was Left of the Japanese Navy, 1945.

Quote:

10 battleships, 6 carriers, 15-30 cruisers, 60-80 destroyers, and an not-estimated number of subs.

Thanks! Glad to hear you like it. Is it possible that the rudder was destroyed on that ship? If a rudder get's hit then the ship won't be able to turn anymore. You can check the subsystems by pressing the Stats button on a selected ship.

Can't remember if it had taken damage at that stage, but it may very well be the reason.
If it happens again I'll take note of the stats screen to confirm.

This sounds like a pretty fun game. Is the manual available for downloading?
I, personally, learn more about if I am going to like a game by reading the manual than by watching demos..

Is there any way I can get a copy of the user's manual for this game?

There's a help page that gives some information and tips on how to play, but no manual.

Thanks. That helps. Still looks like a fun game!

Hi everyone, just wanted to update you guys on the next feature for Battle Fleet 2, Subs! Hopefully this will be released within a month. Subs will be able to operate at 3 different depths, use torps as well as a deck gun and be vulnerable to depth charge attacks.

reaper7 · 08-23-14, 07:10 PM

They will make a nice addition. Wolfpacks anyone....

TarJak · 08-24-14, 07:50 PM

Can't wait! Having some fun with the game. Leaning how to shoot and get planes going where I want them has been interesting, but on the whole the interface is pretty easy to get into. I'm enjoying it.
