Phillip McCutchan never had much of an imagination, his work was more on quantity than quality. His hero was always taking on monstrous odds and winning. They are like the Commando Comics of old. I've never read him for the stories, but rather to see just what he comes up with for the bad guys... Y...
I am impressed, I will admit though that when I read the novel I imagined a Battle ship with a single funnel, like the Scharnhorst herself.

The last one I know of was a 1990's DOS based program called 'Action Stations' but I am looking for something a bit more recent. I am thinkin...
