Were we all in a Port Royal tavern, I would sponsor a round of grog.

I've played strategy games all my life --- a not insubstantial life (not sure how it happened but I'm already 53!). I'm a US National Master in chess, but 53 is really too old for competitive chess. It may also be too old for video games, but if true, this point has eluded me. ;)

Until now, my favorite video games were Civilization, Football Manager, and Silent Hunter 2. I bought Silent Hunter 4 about 3 years ago but couldn't get it running on my old box.

Alas, a new box has arrived and a new day begins.

So far in SH4 on normal realism settings, using the auto TDC, I've not survived past 5 patrols. My solution is to go full burn, 100% realism, in an old S-boat from Cavite.

Can anyone guide me to a good sound mod? I'm thinking I saw one somewhere with Pearl Harbor bulletins, etc., for the radio. Any other advice on mods would also be helpful. Thanks! --- and I'll chat with you soon in other threads....

Welcome aboard :salute:

Don't worry about the age thing, for a start there are a lot older here (not me though :O:), and there are only minimum ages for games - not maximum! :yeah:
