TonyE Posted May 5, 2022 Report Share Posted May 5, 2022 Yay! A number of us have written modified rules for Captain's Edition over the years, mixing Red Banner in, etc. I think Captain's Edition drives a valuable pattern of thinking in game rule design. Captain's Edition isn't quite enough but with a few tweaks, one really can learn a lot about Modern Naval Warfare without the potentially off-putting depth of Harpoon 3, IV, V.

kmart494 Posted July 12, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2022 I uploaded a new version of Harppon: Captain's Edition to the Vassal website. Version 1.1 - Requires Vassal Version 3.6.7 or later. Now can host up to 2 NATO and 2 Soviet players. Added graphics for depicting ship/aircraft sensor ranges. Added an Invisible trait to counters to support double-blind play. Added a Referee player to support double-blind play. All counters except missiles are on player-specific counter sheet windows. Flown aircraft will automatically return to the base Ready Aircraft box when the Next Turn button is pressed.
