I had already written Dreadnought, a simple naval battle game, and Simple Wargame Creator, a slightly more detailed game. Dreadnought II was a marriage of the two. It used IBM's text mode, like the other two games, but with the better presentation of SWC. I managed to build in a computer player, unlike in SWC. In Dreadnought II I knew what the units were going to be, and had an idea of how they should behave. There are a number of different scenarios supplied with the game, and as with SWC you can create your own. But unlike in SWC you're limited to using naval units (not including aircraft carriers).
