Just about everything that needed to be said, has been said in the posts above. Despite it's age, SH3 is still one of the best strategy-type games around, partially because the concept was good to begin with and latterly thanks to the team of modders who have built upon the original game so that it is now almost a new game in itself. Yes, DO play the straight SH3 to start with - you'll love it - but then you'll install something like GWX and maybe a few ship mods and skins... just wait 'til you load the game up after that! "Blown away" won't begin to describe it. The improved graphics, improved tactics, extra ship types, etc etc are a tribute to the skills of the modding team. Like van Holly, I've been playing SH3 for a good 4 years, it pulls you back time after time (and keeps you up 'til dawn more times than I'd care to admit!) You're in for a treat! Finally, you're right about the SubSim forum. One of the best around no matter if you need help, advice, humour or just a chat. WELCOME ABOARD!!
