Description from the packaging.
The second in a series of comprehensive computer naval wargames, Tsushima recreates the climatic naval engagement of the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-5.
Struggling to recover from losing its First Pacific squadron and the Manchurian city of Port Arthur, Tsarist Russia makes a dangerous gamble: to send its Baltic fleet from its home port of St. Petersburg, sail halfway around the world, and sneak past the pride of the Japanese fleet into the port of Vladivostok.
The action begins on the hi-resolution map of Japan, Korea, China and the East China Sea. Both sides know where they are, but where is the enemy? The computer won't tell until your commanders see them! As the Japanese player, do you split your squadrons- or consolidate and hope to find the Russians before they reach Vladivostok? For the Russian player, did the Japanese squadrons move into the high seas, or are they waiting for you in the straits of Tsugaru, Soya, or Tsushima?
When enemy ships come within gun range, the tactical battle takes over. A combat display indicates the locations of each ship involved in the battle. The tactical game is a very realistic simulation of naval surface combat. Everything is taken into account: speed, maneuverability, armor, number and type of each gun, rate of fire, the target's range, and much more. Over twenty-five major ships are represented, so you can re-create a historical battle, or your own "what if" scenario.
Other features include:
- Detailed ship data.
- Realistic combat resolution.
- Easy-to-learn single-letter commands.
- Two levels of play: strategic and tactical.
- 29 Major warships.
- Design your own scenarios.
Tsushima is a game for one or two players and is ready to run on your Commodore 64 computer with one disk drive.
Complexity Level: 6 on a scale of 1 (easy) to 10 (hard).
Playing Time: 15 Minutes for a two-ship tactical battle to three hours for the campaign game.
