Mystery Subsim #30

Here is the initial shot of Mystery Subsim #30


If you guess, and you are wrong, then you have used one of your three wrong guesses alloted to each player. Each player gets only three wrong guesses in the whole contest before your participation ends, so guess wisely (if you are really sure). If you don't know, don't waste a guess! You can only guess incorrectly three times in the contest.

You cannot EDIT your post in this contest. An edited or deleted post counts as a guess.

Remember the rules!!

If no one tries to guess this shot, or no one guesses correctly, there will be an expanded shot to follow.

Good hunting!
Neal

My, my, no brave souls tonight? Or maybe too many guys with 2 strikes against them

First expanded shot of MS#30

This will, like, totally give it away but oh well....

Looks so ^&*#ing familiar, but just can't place it...

Are you just being tricky and reposting Seawolf?

Nope, not a repost. This one must be more obscure than I thought ...

Well, last chance to solve it.

Hint: Crusader Studios

Akula: Red Hunter is correct.


As none of you seem to know, the dev team behind Fast Attack, Software Sorcery, had reformed as Crusader Studios and announced a sequel to Fast Attack. I received some early marketing material and posted a couple news items, and mentioned it in an editorial...before Akula: Red Hunter submerged and never resurfaced. Too bad, Fast Attack was great and I really was looking forward to Akula.

Wow, Dowly, you just earned yourself quite a distinction!

Mystery Subsim #31 is ready to go (and getting stale!). Look for it soon.

Neal

Truly a shame it never came to completion. Those guys had some great approaches to subsim gameplay. Considering how authentic the systems in Fast Attack were (or looked), you only can wonder how great a Akula would have been.

I remember following this game back in the day. I was REALLY looking forward to it and then the plug was pulled. Bummed me out completely.
