Thanx for the interview Neal
Very interesting read

Was really looking forward to release of SH5
Less so now
Will still buy it and give it a spin

I can see the reasoning behind only one uboat type with all the new compartments and interaction but will miss the type 2 and 9
Type 9 moreso as that my preferred choice of sub and generally start in a IX and end in a D2

Can possibly understand the 43 finish as thats when the Battle of the Atlantic was more or less over
Didnt end then with boats sent out up to the last days of the war and still having success although reduced

I guess focusing on the type 7 - aside from less work on the sub side - also reduces campaign work as no Black Sea or Indian Ocean to worry about and not a great deal in the way of South Atlantic or US coast
Type 7s were there of course but in a much smaller role than the 9s

Modding comments were interesting too
Will have to wait to see how that pans out I guess

My only hope is as the game will focus on a small cross section of the war that the campaign will be complete for the period it covers
And the ships included will be various and many

Lets see what March brings eh
