| Description: | A serious wargame which came complete with Harpoon Battleset 1: Greenland-Iceland - UK Gap. The interface allowed you to choose from two icon sets, one stylistic (ships, aircraft etc.) whilst the other is in line with APP-6 (NATO map marking symbols manual) frequently used by proper wargamers. This game (like the PC original) has a tendency to crash from time to time but that aside it's worth a look for the more serious wargamer. | ||
