Advanced Gaming Systems (http://www.advancedgaming.biz/" href="http://www.advancedgaming.biz/">>) announced that Harpoon 3: Advanced Naval
Warfare is now available for sale via the Matrix Games Online Store for a

Harpoon
3: Advanced Naval Warfare enables
the faithful modeling and representation of the full range of modern air and
naval operations; including submarine & anti-submarine warfare, carrier
battlegroup operations, convoy actions, land-based air operations, employment
of nuclear weapons, amphibious and air-assault operations, massive fleet
engagements and more.
David Heath, Director of Operations for Matrix Games, said “Matrix Games is
proud to be associated with Advanced Gaming Systems in the release of this
ultimate simulation of modern naval warfare. We know many wargamers the world
over have eagerly awaited this newest edition of the Harpoon series, and
we’re happy to deliver it.”
Harpoon
3's scale and location of scenarios
is virtually unlimited. Whether you want to simply test an Aegis cruiser
against a Kirov-class battlecruiser or completely model World War 3 or a
possible conflict in the Western Pacific. Harpoon 3 gives you the tools
- the only real limit is how far you want to go!
Harpoon 3: Advanced Naval
Warfare also gives you access to
other players over the Internet, allowing two to six players plus additional
spectators to be engaged in a single game. When not shooting the seas up in
multiplayer mode, a single player mode is available allowing you to access any
one of the scenarios and fight against a savvy A.I. opponent that knows how to
control and coordinate large and small forces alike.
Harpoon 3 Advanced Naval
Warfare will support third party
databases, two of which will be announced on the Matrix website on
launch. These are in addition to the updated Legacy database and the
scenarios shipping with the game (giving you over 300 scenarios total).
Also included is a configuration and launcher system to allow for easy tuning
of the many configuration options addressed by this sophisticated simulation.
Additionally, for ultimate control over your gaming experience, Harpoon 3
Advanced Naval Warfare ships with the Scenario Editor, and features two
database editors (to be shipped later). These provide the tools to create
your own fleets, weapons, and scenarios.

3 who purchased it from Advanced Gaming Systems, Matrix Games is offering a
