I still have the original Harpoon 2 command cards, and all the keys in-game are even bound to the same values. I've played a great deal of Harpoon 2 and 3, and this is Harpoon 2/3 with nothing removed, but with a lot of extra detail added. The multi-monitor support is very nice too.

    In a nutshell, it's Harpoon 2/3, with a graphical and UI over-haul, better performance, improved sensor modelling, mobile ground units, and with rates of turn and acceleration added for aircraft and vessels. This game is the ultimate in its genre, truly fantastic.

    Command Modern Air Naval Operations has been by far my most-played game since I purchased it. With an extremely broad range of scenarioCommand Modern Air Naval Operations has been by far my most-played game since I purchased it. With an extremely broad range of scenario possibilities (from peacetime duties to World War III), and with a scenario editor that is one of the best I've seen in any game, it is definitely worth its price.

    The scenario editor is extremely easy to use. A fully functional and enjoyable scenario can be made in an hour or less, and playtested every step of the way.

From it's seemingly endless andCMANO is one of the greatest simulation games out there for those who are interested in military hardware. From it's seemingly endless and detailed military database to it's many scenarios that cover a period from 1945-2020 this is a military armchair generals wet dream. The game mechanics include a serious sensor/weapon gameplay in which an intricate amount of calculations are made akin to an actual military grade combat simulator. You want to see what happens when X forces attack Y area that has Z units? You will get a pretty accurate picture of how it would end up with this game.

    In addition the editor seems to be a endless toolbox where you can exercise your dream military engagements and even create campaigns with some effort. There is a great deal of tools like triggers, events, scores, weather, time that help you create whatever scenario you dreamt of. The editor is where most of my time went to I tested hundreds of military hardwares in different situations. To give a few examples the S400 vs F35 or DF21D vs Gerald Ford Class Carrier. Both tests ended up having very interesting results.

    There are some obvious downsides namely being the UI and Performance but those are not distruptive to the experience and have been improving ever since it's release with 9 big patches released so far. Kudos to the developer team for their continuous support of the product. As of the writing of this review I think the game has gotten very smooth on these two weak points. In addition to those points I have to say out that the visual aspects of the game are weak since it features a world map but it maintains the modern Command and Control Center operator feel which is crucial.

    If you think the price curve is too high for CMANO go get Command: Northern Inferno it's a smaller scale CMANO that features a 1975 Cold War turning hot campaign that will teach you how to play and will give you good a taste of the game mechanics.

    In Conclusion I give this game 9/10.

I was excited when I first saw this program. I was bummed when I saw the $79 price, a little too much as games go. I am sourly disapointed that I paid $23, I am going to attempt a refund as soon as I am done typing this. This game just does not capture the thrill that "FLEET COMMAND" (F.C.)gave . There is no unit view, that was something else in F.C. when you actually saw the harpoon drill into the side of the Chinese missle boat that had been evading sensors. I game is one of the reasons I think that demos should be made. I dont alot of money and when I spend money on a game that is half done or overpriced or NOT READY FOR REALSE AT ALL! I just want to knock the thieves out that jilted me. I only played this game for 11 min. I got ripped off the last time I bought a program through Steam. They said I had it too long . Sometimes it takes me a little longher than 11min. to determine if a game is going to cut the mustard, this one only took 11min. I do not want this game.

    this game normally costs$79 ? you dont do not even get the whole ball of wax! they expct you to buy all the senarios! I cant beleive that! WTF!
