if really Aussie want a big fight with Indonesia back in 1979, I doubt they even dare. Indonesian military was the strongest in the southern hemisphere at that time. Am not boasting, just check the historical facts or simply read wikipedia.

@doverwhite sources?

@doverwhite You have to be fucking kidding me, at that time Indonesia only had an army.. an army.. of unprofessional undisciplined soldiers, trained in raping and sacking villages. With no airforce or navy to speak of.

[doverwhite]

whoever made this game surely dont know the story behind East Timor invasion by Indonesia. It was US and Aussie themselves who asked Indonesia to invade, over the fear of communist uprising in East Timor through the Communist Party (Apoedeti whatever the name). And invasion was done before East Timor independence, they were in civil war with Portuguese being prepared to leave this their last colony!

@doverwhite Does invasion mean, go in kill foreign journalists, burn villages, rape women and commit some of the world's most atrocious human rights violations?

OK.. thx, feel like Im goin to buy one.

I like strategy game...

But I think it is impossible for Vietnam to aid Indonesia. Why they wanna help anyway PLUS their crafts are much more inferior than Indonesian ships...

Thanks for the comments HwkEy, enjoy the game!

[HwkEy]

Vietnam in East Timor?? WTF

[f3hdemon]

Easy HwkEy, the game is called Fleet Command and this is a hypothetical engagement set in 1979, just a big "what If" Vietnamese aircraft and some patrol baots are aiding the're Indoniesian alies in East Timor.
