Product Description
Some games let you command a single airplane or one ship, but Jane's Fleet Command puts the power (and fate) of an entire naval task force in your hands. It's up to you to schedule air strikes, protect your vital aircraft carriers and reconnaissance aircraft, and orchestrate air coverage so enemy units never have a chance to penetrate your defenses. You'll give orders to submarines, destroyers, air bases, and every other major battle platform in the particular combat theater you're fighting through. Normally a game like this would play out from a standard overhead map, but Fleet Command immerses players in the battle by depicting everything in a 3-D environment. Hear that distress call from a lonely reconnaissance plane? Zoom in to watch the enemy chase it down and (hopefully) see your own aircraft scream to the rescue. It's possible to follow the movements of any object in the game, rotating the camera until you find the perfect angle. It's almost like being the director of your own war movie
