[comp.sys.mac.games] Harpoon; Helos are unrealistic

ASB110@psuvm.psu.edu (Andre Sean Brown) (02/26/91)

I have discovered a possible bug in the naval simulation Harpoon.  When I
ferry my helicopters from one ship to another, there is absolutely no limit as
to how many helos a ship could carry.  Once I actually had 6 helos in the ASW
Krivak III class frigate.  Has anyone else discovered this bug?  If that was
the case, why bother have the Kievs at all then, other than having the CVHN's
anti-surface and anti-air capabilities?  I would think this would be the of
great importance in the NACV battleset.  I could literally chansfer all of
my helicopters from all my AAW ships and ferry them to my ASW battlegroup, thus
have a equal capable ASW platform as the Soviets.  Anyone else discovered this
flaw?
