I also have another question will this have any effect like Hood not being there to get sunk by the Bismarck?

I just checked this and no - there will be no issue
The Hood v Bismarck spawn uses a generic BB for the Hood.
So it will be ok:up:

Man I wish I could delete that green red and yellow marker on realism settings. I don't think WWII subs had that market when firing their fishies, so it takes away from the realism.

Bismarck.

This is like putting shots of a smoking and burning Pearl Harbour with a lot of " :yeah:" signs after it.

A little tact needed my friend.

The Hood was the Royal Navy's most beloved ship and its sinking is still mourned.

I know this is only a game but even so...

One reason that I never used the swastika flags. Thank you but no.

Not that I totally disagree with you.... and we should all keep in mind the sad loss of lives on BOTH sides of this war...

But the fact you are playing a game where the goal is to sink Allied merchant ships and warships could in itself be perceived as celebrating the real life tragedies.

I shudder to think of what my brave and honorable father in law would think if he saw me playing this game. He was a merchant marine in WWII and had two boats sunk from under him (one of which his nephew was on and lost his life).

As long as someone is giving a :yeah: at just meeting an objective in the game, I have no problem with it. If they are making remarks or celebrating the real world sinkings...I have an issue. Keeping the game celebrations seperate from real world events is the only way I have justified playing SH3 and SH5.

I am pleased to see the amount of Historical curiosity this game has generated in young folks that otherwise would have never known such facts as "the Uboat arm of the Kriegsmarine suffered the highest casulaty rate of any unit in any war in history". In the end no matter which side you look at, these were brave men fighting for what they belived in for thier country in the name of patriotism (from Karl Doenitz book "Ten Years and Twenty Days").
