Great review of an even greater game. These guys really know their WWI stuff. I haven't played an easier to get into or harder to put down game in many years.

Great Review.

Was thinking of pulling the trigger on NWAC, now I'm not so sure.

Hey Jim - you mentioned not having an SAI scenario editor manual, at the end of your review, but there is indeed one available.  It's a separate PDF, and there's also a third one for the ship editor.  All on the download & info thread at NWS.

LOL!  Sorry Jim.

Since you referenced the beta manual, I'm guessing you've had this review in the works for awhile?  ;D

Not sure if anyone saw this, but down in this thread, talks about the upcoming free campaign mode...sounds like a good start and what will push me over the edge to make the purchase finally:)

The campaign sounds like a lot of fun.   8)   

Somewhat simple, and no strategy map layer, but still having all the operational planning and long-term strategy involved.  I like it.
