Thanks. Skybird pointed out this site a few weeks ago, I explored through it looking for subsims. Some of them don't have full functionality, like Wolfpack, where the other ships do not appear in the scope. And some seem to work but we need to find the keychart and user manuals, maybe we can publish them here as references.

You dont have to, try refreshing. the page just need to download some metadata automatically to initiate the emulator procedure.maybe try to clear your cache.

How did I miss this thread!

GNBNA was one of my favorites growing up. I found it for DOSbox a while back, loved playing it again. But since I've since learned more of the battle of the Atlantic, I've realized how monotonous a surface only sim is for the Atlantic. The Germans had a limited combat life, and even if you managed to get a good task force together, it would eventually suffer damage requiring a long overhaul. And then eventually the air war is lost and the ship yards get continually bombed, adding time to the repairs.

For the Allies, You go on a hunt at first, trying to catch and squash the Germans, but after their major surface vessels are defeated/laid up, you become a paper pusher transfering Uboat damaged ships out of convoy duty and back.

But that said, the gameplay is great, the combat sim is pretty good, and the damage control is amazing.

Anybody else have suggestions from this list?

Wow. Silent Service was the first game I was ever addicted to. And Wolfpack was so awesome!

I can't believe looking at the graphics now how much I thought they were awesome back then!
