:nope:

No sir, this is real. While still in the early stages, Ubi France has confirmed to Subsim that the dev team has been assembled and are actually assigned to SH4 work.

I can't help but notice that the picture on the Subsim front page for SHIV is from the cover of The Destroyer Killer by Edwin P. Hoyt. Very cool book - it's about the story of Commander Samuel Dealey and the Gato class US sub Harder. The picture on the cover is not entirely accurate, but from the sinkings described in the book, the exploding destroyer is probably the Tanikaze. Dealey was known as the Destroyer Killer because he sank so many enemy escort vessels - after the war it appears he sank four destroyers, two frigates, one or two armed trawlers, damaged another armed trawler, may have sunk two other unidentified escorts, and sank between 10-20 merchant ships. That's a record I hope to beat when SHIV is released. :rotfl:

:up: You know your stuff.

This all hinges on one important factor; Starforce!!

If they are using SF there is no SH4 to me and shall I say many others.

I don't want to go through that again and don't want to rant here as I would gladly buy SH4 but so that I can torpedo the Japs not be screwed by the Russians.

Ergo, what heareth thou on this subject of evil
