SUBSIM Radio Room Forums - Career with playable ships

Hello,

I purchased SH4 a few years after it debuted. I had read the SH4 manual, but had a hard time getting the deck gun to run with one of the mods, so I admittedly lost interest in the game. Since I last played SH4, I have been lurking on the forums and have noticed that modelers have created several wonderful looking ships. I am much more of a ship guy. Can someone please tell me what the career is like with the playable ships? What activities do you participate in as a captain of a ship?

Thanks for your help.

Sincerely,
Walter
