Great classic board game and much simpler on the computer
RNG is totally biased towards AI, Played many many rounds, AI always comes out on top. Played the CD version and it seemed to be neutral when rolling the dice. Another issue when human played Bombards island during amfib attack, AI gets to fire back, where when AI bombards human player pieces are removed immediately with no chance to fire back. Lastly transports are not allowed to take hits when in a fleet, all hits go to the fleet, and transports are gone, except when AI is defending then transports can take hits before the fleet if they are empty. This game needs a lot of work, before it can call itself close to the board game. Save your money until the bugs are fixed!
This game is honestly such ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ it makes you want to jab spoons into your eyeballs. The die roll mechanics are such ass. Literally battles that should be massive wins to you will suddenly become a complete slaughter in favor of the ai. Almost all die rolls for you will never land a hit meanwhile the grabs your face and proceeds to skull ♥♥♥♥ you into next week. Seriously save yourself the headache of playing this hot pile of ♥♥♥♥.
♥♥♥♥ game with statistically impossible dice rolls.

Not very many games offer this form of person to person competitive play. The game is simple enough to grasp yet as complex enough to challenge players as they improve.
