Now my curiosity has risen. Granted I haven't read much on the SHIV threads but what I have read, I was to the understanding the SHIV was for the Pacific war; US vs Japan. I was under the impression that - for all intensive purposes - SHIII & SHIV were basically to work together. SHIII being for the Atlantic campaign, SHIV for the Pacific.
Now obviously they are two different programs, but are you saying you can run either the Atlantic OR the Pacific campaigns in SHIV ??
I have loved playing SHII for a long, long, long time and want to continue the effort. And I understand SHIII is just an incredible update to SHII. But if you can run both campaigns in SHIV, then what was the purpose of SHIII ?? Why would anyone want to continue with, or purchase for that matter, SHIII when you have SHIV that will do the same thing ??

I am going to need more info regarding SHIV, would you all please elaborate in detail the joys & thrills of SHIV. I thank you for the enlightenment.



Well, someone went and torpedo'ed the merchant vessel with my SHIII disks aboard.
I received notice the other day:

We regret to inform you of the loss of your product. Due to circumstances beyond our control, your order has been cancelled.
The merchant ship 'Markarel' has not made port on July 23rd as expected and we fear she is lost at sea. Last contact with the merchant was July 18th.
We mourn with you for the loss and can only hope for a better future.
Thank you for you patience and understanding in these trying times.
Perhaps for the better, ... I really need some encouraging words right now (SHIV - tell me more) to keep my head above the waters of depression.
Thanks guys.
