Woa, jmr found the holy grail of subsim manuals! Thnks jmr!

Ok guys here you go. I never scanned a book before so it's not professional looking but it is the entire manual for Fast Attack. I uploaded it to www.replacementdocs.com but it's pending approval. Until then you can grab it from Filefront.

Enjoy!

Speaking of Fast Attack, the upcoming 2008 Subsim Almanac has an exclusive feature by the man who created, programmed and oversaw the game design, Jim Frantz.

Just a little history you cannot get anywhere else about a classic subsim

Looking forward to it. The last one was a great combination of gaming and history!

I had a pentium 120.

I guess it was okay.

Did you try Civil War Generals 2?

nikimcbee · 11-04-07, 08:58 PM

:hmm: Okay Neal, try this one: MiG Alley Ace on cassette tape (not disk)

Is that ols school enough?

Onkel Neal · 11-16-07, 11:52 PM

My goodness, that's getting there. How about Bedlam on cassette, with the TRS-80? And you had to set the volume just right or your would get an input error and the program would not load into memory

Those old cassettes were a trip. Did you ever put one in an audio tape player and listen to it?

I guess I should stop playing Fast Attack and continue working on the Subsim Retro Machine, but for the last few evenings I've have "Conn: Sonar, new contact, bearing 342, Sierra 4" running through my brain.

After I complete this battle set, I will continue this project and my little blog here
