The post bij Alain-James sums up pretty much the feelings I have had when playing TF 1942.
My intentional delaying of new troops to bring to Guadalcanal so the campaign would last longer is something I fondly remember. Unfortunately, the A.I. would only send the occasional APD (which got subsequently sunk by Betty strikes) to resupply the Americans on the island if I remember correctly..... so the Americans would eventually die off because of lack of supplies. The very original copy protection scheme where you had to recognize ships from the ship manual or would be banished to a battle one can't win was a great touch! Needless to say I was playing the bad guys most of the time, just like I do in my PBEM in WITP:AE.
TF 1942: great concept, great scale, great U.I.... all this in the mid Nineties! Let fly all the torpedoes again!
Can't wait to land the Ichiki Detachement again!
Please, keep us posted.
Certain buyer here!

Just thought I'd chime in to say that I loved TF1942, played the bejesus out of it and would love to play it again! It is my favorite naval game of all time.

Hi Verticeman,welcome to the forum. To send a PM just left click on the user name in the box on the left of the post and select 'send a PM'. It's been a while since Gatorman replied.I hope this is because he is busy on his creation.

Too funny, I'm reading this now and am in the middle of the Battle for Cape Esperance and was thinking maybe there is a game I can "what if" this with? Hornfischer is a great writer and does a great job of delivering history, telling the story and providing a good study or the politics, personalities and technologies that effect the outcome. Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailors is another great book of his.
Yep, I don't post allot. But I still love you.
