First time I even clicked on this forum in months.

I have been snoozing while commanding a US sub. I will install Trigger Maru and give it one more shot and if that does not ring my bell I have this latest Grey Wolves and my own mods lined up and it will be back in the Kriegsmarine for me.

Drat says KL of the only Wulf he does not like!!:rotfl:

The 4 is nice graphics wise but I see Jap DDs and yawn!
While I admit I added more escorts in my GW versions that is not it, the Brit DDs scare the Scheise out of me while the Japs are wussies.
I can remember hours on hours in 1X real time nervously sweating every sound checking every move on the hydro trying to guess where I could barely avoid death against Englander enemies that seem to know my every move.
In SH4 I just drop to 200 feet (200 meters and the boat is Kaboom) set it on silent make a strait course and walk away knowing these nippers either can't or won't bother sinking my big nose, round eyed, big eared whitey rear.
I try and play as a skipper would as surface actions are impossible (I reset all escorts to minimum 3 like in my GW) so the Nips are actually more deadly with their guns but their DCs are merely noise makers.
Still hard to ignore the nice graphics but just not the same level of play. Not even close.

Actually I have been more busy with other Kraut weaponry, K98ks of late but when I consider some game time I just don't have the same can't wait to get everything out of the way so I can get to a GW patrol with the US Subs.

Glad to see the GW team is still at it.
