I spent a considerable amount of time last night setting up templates for these missions. I forgot how powerful the mission editor really is. Many options available.

I will look into DWX today - thanks for the heads up.

Limiting the campaign only to the Seawolf is lets say underwhelwing and I think mostly a limitation of standard DW/Lwami.
Having new playables, such as the Harushio class opens up the campaign to a geo political level that can't be achieved with the default version. In a real crisis in the chinese sea, japan would most asuredly have one or two boats patrolling and doing intellligence or covert operations to aid the americans. Etc... the possibilities and alliances in such a campaign would be great to experience. Even the Seawolf as advanced as it is, is not really tailored for brown water missions. The Virgina instead yes, as diesel electrics as the Lada and Harushio are.
Greenwood, download and install DWX (and the necessary patches, just beware that the default installation is not jsgme friendly) and you will see just how giant a leap it is with respect to DW/Lwami.
As a mission designer you should be salivating at the possibilities for campaign design.
