Anyone familiar with this expansion campaign for SH3? I've just happened to run into it and wondered if it was worth getting, and whether or not it's compatible with GWX 2.0?

Looks like they just took the GWX2 Mediterranean and Black Sea stuff and made an add-on out of it :lol:

Seriously, if all that is included is listed on the page that was linked, then there's not much(if any) that is not already in GWX2.


more than 40 new ship-types, like Scharnhorst, Gneisenau and British battle ships CHECK

more than 40 additional towns and harbors in the Mediterranean and the black sea, i.e. Constanza and Salamis CHECK

high-res skins for ships, U-boats and harbors; new particle and smoke effects CHECK
re-worked damage models for all ships CHECK

improved detection of enemies on the surface ??
improved U-boat radar ??
reduced, more realistic air radar and reduced night viewing capabilities of all enemies CHECK

extended radio logs for 1941 through 1943 CHECK
a new and improved help-screen CHECK
improved uniforms CHECK


edit: Here's a more detailed description http://www.combatplanes.ca/uboat.htm

Something from the company's web page:


In late 2004 we released Aces Campaigns for Forgotten Battles, and then Seawolves for Silent Hunter III in September of 2005. U-Boat: Battle in the Mediterranean was released in August, 2006

I actually thought it was a good mod, obviously this was before i discovered GWX.
But the Med mod did capture the med campaign very well and there is some great med camo skins for type VIIc`s on this mod and the ports are well done, actually i wonder if i could use the med skins off that mod for my current GWX 2.0 med campaign?
