I found the P.M. gizmo and sent you one. I think it is considered...'gauche'... to spin Sea Stories on a thread like this, eh, Mate ?

Hate to make too many....angry...this new to the Forum !

A very nice thing I like about the Saitek X52 is they are custom-programmable. Every button, knob, dial . . . you can even print out the template and note which-does-what, and set them for what you want. And it even has a button you can toggle that lets you push things and see what you set them for. So you can find out that, yes, that button does fire your Harpoon without actually firing it.:D

I can understand threads getting sidetracked, because sometimes conversations do to. That said, is there really a need to hold private conversations on a public thread? Just read your PMs and let us get back to arguing about our games.

Goat 10-19-06 10:33 AM

Your call, Mate. You have a lot more postings than I do... 'Sea Stories' usually get loooooong and far afield. I was just trying to avoid bothering people....

Sailor Steve 10-19-06 10:36 AM

Postings aren't standings, and I have no authority at all. I'm just a guy whining.

Goat 10-19-06 10:43 AM

Then I suggest you tell FIREWALL to post his Sea Story... and let the chips far where they may... Maybe those subscribed to this thread WILL enjoy it, and not feel 'high-jacked'...:)

Is that not a highly subjective statement?


They may be 'old' for you, but the Pacific is a whole new experience, and a whole different type of conflict to the Atlantic.


For me, personally, this is going to be as fresh and as exciting as SHIII... in my opinion far more exciting than sailing in an Ohio waiting for a launch order.

Plus, if I was that much into submarines I would have joined the Navy!!!


However, we are all entitled to opinions, but I suggest that the excitement on the forums surrounding this new game suggests that WW2 subs games are not old yet...

Nope, an Pakistany Daphne sunk an Indian Destroyer(or vice versa ?) and there was even an realy ASW operation after it. The argentine Type 209 als ren a serie of attacks aggainst britsh ships and even a nuc sub. Luck for the brits that the torps didn't work :) the war would had turned out very different else.

Something not done already. British subs, Russian subs, or Norwegian subs(:p). Something new.
