hello folks ( or should I say ahoy shipmates?). I am new to this game (DW) but not to the subsims forum. Usually I pester the good folk of Silent Hunter 3 as that has been my sub game of choice for some while. However, I saw DW up for sale at a price I could afford, so I got it - and here I am.
I have to say it is not, at first glance, quite what I have been used to in SH3 - but maybe I could get into it more and start enjoying it if I knew a bit more about how to drive it. Is there a training mission I can have a bash at please?? At present I am interested in the sub side. I do have a manual and I have tried the quickstart guide but do not feel it says enough to get me going. Ta |

Welcome aboard!
I made a training mission not to long ago, there is a link to it here: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=116888 Also, be sure to check out subguru.com for missions (including those meant for beginners) and mods. The CADC is also a good place to go for tactical advice. I'm a bit biased though.

Anyway .. playing missions with one star should give you enough 'training'.

The zip file should include the .mu mission file. Put that in your scenarios directory; after that the mission will be visible in the Single Missions menu.
