It's time to take a look back and see how my Naval Gaming predictions for 2018 came out!

 Not a bad run considering the limited information from some of the sources; You can't make good predictions on the basis of little or inaccurate information.

 Please note, that last was not menat as perjorative; the simple fact is the three companies you made predictions about have not been too forthcoming with information for various and totally valid reasons. And in some cases, the data supplied was of an optomistic nature rather than exacting.

I agree with Covert, much better to be wrong because you were a little over optimistic and the companies are taking time to make things better.  I also agree that the lack of a head of steam on certain projects doesn't fill me with joy.

2018 - The year of Naval Wargame Disappointments...

-- Warcradle did... nothing?

-- SW Armada trailed off/stanganted just as I picked it up (then set it back down again)

-- DFC did nothing new to win me over

2018 was a tough year for Naval wargaming.

Optimistic signs Easy E, but rather late in the year.
