Command: Modern Air / Naval Operations WOTY is $27.19 (66% off) at Fanatical.

Limited time offer ends in 7 days.
Regardless of how good a PC game may be it will always have its detractors and no matter how bad a PC game may be it will always have its fans.

 There has been a ton of content added to this game over the last year or so. Does anyone know if the manual online has been updated? For example:  with concepts contained in the last few DLC'S?

I finally bought the game through Fanatical even though I tried Northern Inferno on Steam in the spring and had trouble understanding the game. But for the sale price (plus the 10% off coupon code), I just couldn't pass up a chance of buying the game and trying to learn it. I used to play a lot of Jane's Fleet Command so I'm hoping that I'll be able to understand CMANO.

Well it's definitely more complex than Jane's but I find the UI to be pretty intuitive. Once you get the hang of setting up missions for your aircraft, it's pretty easy. The game itself isn't tough...mechanically anyway, it's the real world realism that gets you. Learning how not to have your 20 tomahawks get shot down by the SAM sites, electronic warfare, what types of aircraft to use, etc.

Watch a YouTube video or 2 and you will be on your way

I agree; its definately not about controlling the game from a UI standpoint. Its learning how you actually use the assets available to complete the objectives of a mission.
This is what makes CMANO so interesting to me.

Will love when they release the Multiplayer version of it. Since the Pentagon purchased a version should be soon they say. I would hope for 2018 :)

Baloogan once had multiplayer for the game but I don't know if it still works.

JC is a program which plugs into Command and makes it possible to play PBEM style Command matches with other members of the community!

JC died a few years ago when Baloogans server blew up.
PanzersEast: Have to think to myself.... will I play the first one by the Winter Sale?  Probably not, then I should remove Dragonfall
PanzersEast: but that is thinking too logically.... and Steam Sales are about ignoring Logic

Is Baloogan himself still around? I don't recall seeing him lately.
