- Program Title: FRIGATE version 1.1
- PC-SIG version: 1
-
- FRIGATE is a strategy game which pits you and your ship against the
- Soviet fleet. The object is to destroy as many of the opposing ships
- as possible while avoiding destruction of your own.
-
- Points are awarded for destroying your enemy while avoiding their
- missiles. Your ship, a nuclear-powered frigate, besides being armed
- with guided missiles has many advantages over its Soviet counterparts
- but you are outnumbered by a large margin. Operating in an area of
- 1,000,000 square miles, you have radar, sonar, jamming equipment,
- anti-missile capabilities and three types of ordinance at your
- disposal.
-
- FRIGATE is played from two on-screen windows, a Main window which gives
- you an overview of your ship's status, and an Options window whose content
- changes in accordance with the commands you select. Your ship's informa-
- tion and position are updated constantly while you give commands. FRIGATE
- is operated using a "turn" system. This means that you can enter in as
- many commands as the time in your "turn", referred to as the "Turn Time",
- permits. After this time expires the enemy and all weapon systems are
- updated. This allows for much faster playing time and more realistic
- action. FRIGATE is a challenging and stimulating game that will provide
- many, many hours of entertainment. Fun for ages 11 to adult.
-
- Synopsis: It's you and your one ship against an entire Soviet fleet.
