ADS: Advanced Destroyer Simulator

ADS: Advanced Destroyer Simulator

Commodore Amiga - Released - 1991

Advanced Destroyer Simulator (ADS) is a naval combat simulation set in World War 2. It was the first naval simulation to use real-time filled 3D graphics. Its style and mechanics are reminiscent of Epyx's Destroyer (1986). ADS simulates the H.M.S. Onslaught, a British destroyer of the O-class fitted with three cannon turrets, four torpedo tubes on port and starboard respectively, and a sonar to detect and track submarines. In ADS, the Onslaught is not part of a flotilla.

Onslaught, a British destroyer of the O-class fitted with three cannon turrets, four torpedo tubes on port and starboard respectively, and a sonar to detect and track submarines. In ADS, the Onslaught is not part of a flotilla. There's no campaign, gameplay is mission-based and set in three scenarios (two in the CPC version) with five mission each: The Mediterranean around Sicily, the English Channel between UK and France, and the North Sea coast of Norway. Objectives include seek-and-destroy assignments, patrols, convoy escorts, submarine hunts and blockade runs. Each scenario also offers an open “Delta” option where you cruise and hunt without specific objectives. You navigate the destroyer manually, in real-time and from a first person perspective, though with the help of a scenario map. ADS simulates ship combat as a close-quarter exchange of torpedoes and cannon fire. In proximity to enemy land bases, Stuka fighters can attack and must be shot down with the cannons. Submarines are tracked with the sonar and can only be attacked once they surface. Enemy vessels include freighters, tankers, torpedo boats, destroyers and cruisers. Most missions are time critical; in the course of the mission, it may be necessary to dock in allied ports for repairs, to refuel and restock on ammunition.

D-Day

D-Day

Amstrad CPC - Released - 1992

The Amstrad version of D-Day takes the same approach as Futura's other versions of D-Day by being a multi-genre game comprising of four different missions. While the idea of the missions are similar how they are done is different. 1. The plane missions have been replaced with missions from the Naval simulation game Advanced Destroyer Simulator. 2. Paratrooper - players select paratroopers one at a time and issue them orders as they contend with the wind. Orders include inclined flight to the left or right and accelerated or normal descent. 3. Infantry - In this part of the game, players take on the command of an allied infantry unit as they complete 20 missions in order to gain a strong position in enemy territory. The allied unit the player issues orders to consists of anywhere between 3 to 10 soldiers that are based on a French infantry units. The soldiers can use rifles, grenades, and can also use mortar fire to attack enemy fortifications, but they have to keep a careful eye on not wasting ammo as it can run out. 4. Tank - The missions are from Sherman M4.
