Does you guys remember Jane's Fleet Command?
How is Naval War compared to old Fleet Command? I missed the comparison in the review frown

And thank god there is Paradox Interactive with all their complex Grand Strategy Games! And thank god I discovered Paradox Interactive through Civilization 5 which in my opinion failed hard (thx to the new Firaxis dev who made this possible). Europa Universalis III is my new Civ (stuck in Middleage). smile

At $10 it's definitely a steal. I have no issues giving a hearty recommendation at that price.

Hello everyone,

new to the forum but have been reading SimHQ for quite a while now.

Naval War is 75% off on Steam for 24 h starting now. I belive for 5$/5 euros (in EU) it is worth it.

From Fatty's review:

"To be upfront with it, Naval War is a Steamworks game, which as far as I know means that you must be running Steam to play the game."

So I have to be online and connected to Steam to play it? Is that still the case? I could see this being a great laptop game to take with me on the road..but quite often I don't have internet connections when sitting in FBOs in Podunk, USA...

Still..for $5..can't really complain..

Yes, You need steam running but You can run it in an offline mode and play the game without having internet connection.

What Ariel said, but make sure you set Steam to offline BEFORE you disconnect from the internet.

Yes, you have to be connected in order to disconnect.

I made that mistake when I took my laptop with my Steam games with me on deployment. Ship pulled out, I started up the laptop, selected offline on Steam and was like, "Uh oh..."

It was a long six months after that.
