Anybody know or is a part of this that can elaborate what they're about and how it works :06:

It started of as the Iblitz Campaign for SH2, and became Wolves At War with SH3. Basically they act as BdU and give you assignments, which you complete as a single-player but reporting back so you're a part of a greater campaign instead of fighting the war alone.

Just read over their site. You'll get a good idea of what it's about.

Danke SS ...

Do you know if they're still in operation ... from their forum it looks long between posts :hmmm:

I'm not sure. Real-life complications kept me from ever actually playing, but I've always wanted to. I'd suggest just posting there and seeing what happens. In fact now that you've reminded me I might do that myself.

So thank you.

Yes WAW is still operating and Campaign five has just been completed.

As Steve has said, we act as BdU and provide assignments to individual boats and act as a part of the greater campaign.

You are more than welcome to check it out and join.

Good hunting,

Having been a part of 4 of the 5 WaW campaigns, it is fun. It also looks like the long awaited Pacific Fleetboat edition using SH4 is finally going to get started.

Will this mean they will stop doing the SH3 side of things?

PappyCain

'Stryker' is very impressed. This is a very well organized site, forum and immersion time machine for serious simmers and history buffs. Hopefully they will continue SH3. I don't own SH4.

We are looking to get WAW Pacific going shortly. It does require using SH4.

For the WAW Atlantik we use SH3.

As I indicated above, we just about finished up WAW V and traditionally we take a short break of a few weeks to make any changes to rules, command structure and the like once the current campaign has been completed.

We will start WAW VI if we have enough participants for the Atlantik.

Hey guys, I still miss you! (You may remember me as Heinz Fischer from WaW I/II)

I really hope to get back to the fold someday, although my studies/work haven't been great for this kind of thing :(

If you do plan to get WaW pacific on, please promote it on the SH4 forum here. I might just try to join again, too :yeah:

Like to have you back in fold again, but take care of business first.

I'll get Per to post something over on the SH4 forum when WAW Pacific is up.

GREAT!!!!

IMPORTANT: When registering both at the SHIII Atlantik WaW OR the SHIV-based WaW-Pacific sites YOU must follow the rule of choosing user name reflecting the possible name of a commander of that time. We have experienced (and still are) numerous spammers registring creating lots of cleanout work every week. What I mean is that any calling him/herself dwrlwadda, viagrachnker, splotirdby etc etc..... will automatically be rejected.
Just take a look at the existing user names and you will get the picture:cool:.

Very true. Having played with WaW since 2006 I think and am still very attached to it.
Yes, real life (oooohhh:oops:) catches up on many of us working the sites but it is still alive. For SHIII it is most likely that we are starting up in a smaller scale than in the earlier days. I mean we had many flotillas at many theatres running at the same time following the time of the war. Some of us has run flotillas for up to 4 years now as commanders.
As said the WaW-Pacific is definitely coming shortly. We are using SHIV1.5 with TMO2,5 & RSRD mods.

Very Addictive!!!!!!!!!!!!:03:

Last weekend we started a trial run of WaW-Pacific to iron out the procedures for gameplay and the site. Unfortunately both WolvesAtWar and WolvesAtWar-Pacific (same server) went down yerterday. We are trying to contact the owner to see if we can get a status update. Hang in there.

Thanks for the update, I came in here to see if I could find out why I was getting the 505 message when trying to log in. Good luck with getting us back up.

Bad news, sorry to hear that. Anything new on why the servers went down??? Hope they were up soon, so we can finish the trial run on WaW-Pac and start the real campaign.

Glad to hear that the site will be back. WAW is one of the greatest aspects to the entire SH experience. To those who are thinking of getting involved I highly recommend giving it a shot...if you have the time of course because you can lose yourself very easily (for hours and hours at a time if you want).

Looking forward to the day that I can get back to sea.

Cheers

I just finished my patrol 23 cruise and the war in the Atlantic is ending, didn't think it would take the site with it. Am also waiting for my registration to be accepted for the Pacific campaign.
Lost with out SH, well not SHV so much, but definitely the others, though I don't play SHI any more.

Ach, I was wondering what was going on. Intending to start W@W6, when it happens.

Right now they are trying to get an idea on how many are interested in playing, and seeing how many would be interested in taking part as a leader/assistant of a flottille. So, if you are the least bit curious about what WaW is all about, now is the time to get your questions answered.
