The essential sources for how this all works today are Dmitry Filipoff's epic article series on naval tactics at CIMSEC along with Wayne Hughes' book Fleet Tactics and Coastal Combat. Dmitry knows more about this than most active duty SWOs. (Hughes has sadly passed on.) cimsec.org/fighting-dmo...

Don't think I've ever played elite or at most watched a friend play it. Did get caught up in the hype for frontier on the Amiga. Got it and didn't have a clue what to do so went back to playing swos

Now that SWOS is done, I've got something new for tonight. The start of a new wheel that's all about the 7th generation, filled with Xbox 360 and PS3 goodness...and it's picked Sonic 4 to kick me off. Should be...um, average? Hopefully? Anyhoo, that's what's live at 7. :)

Here are two versions of M8, Lagoon nebula. The red one is "true" color LRGB processing. The psychedelic is narrowband SHO processing. This is a tiny piece of this giant emission nebula located in Sagittarius. Data were acquired in 2021 at Obstech, Chile, by the SWOS team. Processed by me. 🔭

I've spent my life chasing a soccer game that I enjoyed as much as I loved SWOS. It doesn't exist. This is where soccer games peaked. Fans still make updates to this day!
