Thats the the Navy does these days is provide support And with how conflicts are today both the Battleship and the carrier are a big waste of money For Capt you also dont see to know what a Monitor is its a coastal defence ships it doesnt provide shore bombardment because it cant go very for for home shore thats were they were useless for the Americans because the later wars never got to America I dont really see how I have complained about...

right as i have been looking into what capt has said must of what he says is true, a BBBG cant just walk in and take a CVSF the BBBG would just be blow out the water by the time they get even 100 miles close to the CVSF. also it is near impossible to get through a CVSF by missiles or aircraft. so fair enough capt i guess you are right on most of the things

You haven't read any of my previous posts and if you had, you would know why this malarkey. Ohhh a 16" shell is a cheaper than an F-18. I didn't know that, surely you can dazzle me with other irrelevancies. Hey, did you know a 76mm anti tank round is cheaper than an M1 Abrams?...

I appreciate your feedback and that this is an older game. Things do evolve as BS:P demonstrates. I've been watching all the trailers and videos that are out there and BS:M is an amazing project. I even watched the 35 minutes prelaunch Gamespot video interview. WOW! What I'm wondering is where can a new player go to get a taste? The video is great. Where can I go to play? Again, this is new to me as I usually do single player sims.

maybe, but lets fantasize now, IDK about you but a space sim would be great, yea it might be nerdier but who cares? battlecruisers + like transports to invade enemy starships or space stations? fighters that kill bombers that shoot slow shield distrupting torpedos? i think it could be fun. but i dont think its a default pic, wouldnt the default pic be just a disk like a circle??? maybe its a joke, or maybe its a glimpse of a future title? like...

Well, given the way BS:M multiplayer is setup you need to get a gamespy account. It's free, just requires a simple registration at www.gamespy.com . You need to fill in with the user data (ID,e-mail, PW) the BS:M profile screen. Once that's done you're ready to roll. Just get into the "Multiplayer" option, go to "Internet" and pick "Join Server". If you're lucky there...

Maybe or like I said. Maybe it is some placeholder or something from an old Mithis game Nexus: The Jupiter Incident.

I've seen the KGV class ships go to the bottom first in almost every map I've ever played(and 9 times out of 10 its the kongo class putting them down). I've...

think about this for a sec... battleships became obsolete when the brits attacked the italian battleship fleet in tanto in 1940 with torpedo bombers, the same for pearl harbor when the ijn hit us on dec 7, but we didnt pay any attention the brits success adn thats why we suffered so badly this just proved how vulnerable any ship was to aerial attacks. the thing that made the battleship 2nd to airplanes is wut the ijn did to marry the 2. they...
