DSD (Dynamic Ship Destruction).

DSD is a theme with application not just for WOTK but all maritime military simulators.

-Real Cargo
-Real Equipment
-Real Damage Components
-Real Structural Failures
-Real Wreckage
-Real Catastrophic Damage
-Real Human Beings (Panic, Bravery, and everything between)
-Real Injuries
-Real Variety

When you fight, you are making war not against a ship, but against other people. DSD will prove this:

1) Captains and crew will fight to save their ships.

2) If unsuccessful, they will fight to save their lives. As a submarine commander, you witness it all in close-up.

No more "100 hp and you're dead" gaming.
No more "ghost ships" populated by no one.
No more "empty shell" hulls that show no damage.

I have been shocked by how many new maritime simulators don't bother to show what it was really like to sink a ship. The Hitpoints/Fire Decal system has literally been used in nearly every naval sim since the 1990's. Well, DSD is a rebellion!

More news coming soon.

Now this sounds absolutely phenomenal - a true quantum leap in damage modeling for SH4

Very excited for this
