- Dear Eric,
-
- I also agree with your opinion of Carrier Command. I believe the realism
- of the graphics is amazing. Unfortunately, I have to disagree with your
- hint of always destroying the command center. I have destroyed the Enemy
- Carrier and captured all the islands and ended up with a final score of
- 1,169,080, and the only command centers that I destroy are those found on
- the Defense Islands. When you need to take an island and make it a
- Enter command or friendly island quickly, I've found that sending a
- Manta in to take out the defensive guns and a Walrus in with a Virus
- bomb to take considerably less time than waiting for an ACCB to set
- up a destroyed island. If by this time you still haven't seen the Enemy
- Carrier (although Idon't know how you could have missed it after ++30
- hours playing), just make sure that the "REPORT" option is highlighted
- and when you are informed that the carrier is attacking a nearby island,
- take off for it. When you get in range of the island under attack, send
- a Manta on a reconnasainse(sp) mission to locate it somewhere around the
- island. If you can hear bombing on the still-friendly island, then
- you'll know the EC is still in range. It takes many different
- combinations to take out EC- IT DOESN'T DIE EASILY!!!! I/ve killed it
- several times, but only actually SAW it be destroyed once. BE CAREFUL!!!!
- If you don't attack it aggressively, IT WILL ATTACK YOU--VERY
- AGGRESIVELY!!! Please take no offen seat my comments, because honestly
- none is intended. Good Luck with the game. I hope you find EC, and
- let's hope they keep coming out with games of this quality.
-
- Sincerely yours,
- Another Carrier Command Addict
