HPS Naval Battles: Suggestion NA'86

[HirooOnoda]

I don't know how many of you played or even remembered SSI's North Atlantic '86, but that, along with Red Storm Rising, has to be the best computer naval warfare game of the last 25 years. It came out in 1984 and by the title you can gander that it is predicated upon a WP vs. NATO battle of the North Atlantic.

Granted, HPS NBs is more of a tactical game while NA'86 is operational, it wouldn't take much tweaking of the HPS engine to be able to re-fight one of the greatest naval battles of history (even if it didn't happen).

The struggles for Iceland and running supplies to England through tens of soviet submarines and hundreds of AS-6 missles was incredible.

So if the designers are reading this, I do hope you will consider this suggestion.

PS I realize Harpoon 3 is out, but that is a tactical engine and not as good as NA'86.
