USS Ticonderoga lets you command a mighty Ticonderoga-class missile cruiser in this exciting real-time naval combat simulation. Beautiful to look at, thrilling to play and filled with multimedia bonuses. The Ticonderoga class cruiser is one of the most powerful ships in the US Navy. Featuring the Aegis battle management system and a full compliment of the latest in high-tech weaponry, this ship is fully prepared for battle in nearly any situation. USS Ticonderoga lets you select any of three theatres of operation: the Persian Gulf, the North Atlantic or the Sea of Japan. The conflict in each theatre is based upon a theoretical future (in the Gulf, for example, Iran has defeated Iraq to emerge as a regional power; the US Navy has been called in to protect shipping and other vital interests). You will need to use all of your ship's resources to try to keep the peace (and stay alive in the process). Excellent Simulator. The Only Defacto Missile Cruiser Simulator Ever Made For Personal Computers, very rare item.

Ticonderoga- Owning the High Seas from your Desktop
I've had this sim for about 7 years now. It's an older game, sure, but if you're used to playing Harpoon, you'll get into this too. It's more than Harpoon, however, in that you get to walk around some of the ship (Think Myst style 90's game- no smooth movements, you click and you are a few steps forward), and you get to talk to your XO to issue orders, you can walk around the CIC and watch screens and issue orders from there. And your XO responds negatively or positively to how well your orders correspond to the Admiral's orders which you receive at the beginning of each scenario. As the Tico class are outfitted in real life as command ships, you are frequently in command of other vessels as well. You must be politically minded too, as in real life. You can't just blow the Iranian Navy into Davey Jones' locker.The graphics are a little dated (won't stand up to recent Silent Hunter or Dangerous Waters) but still it's fun. Don't have time for a 3 hour surface encounter? There's a time control on the bottom of the screen to move things up a little faster, and drops to 2x speed when missiles, torpedoes or cannon fire gets out.Moreover, it runs fine on my WinXP + updates system. Just press "Y" on the startup. Also: the only quirk with it is that it must be run from the "D" drive.If you like Harpoon, but want a little more, then I highly recommend Ticonderoga: Life and Death On the High Seas.
