Now I trying to find what an AMC ship is up in the north...I believe they are in Scapa Flow? I dont know, but compared to SH4, is this too easy? Yes, my game is modded but sinking 25 merchant ships with manual TDC on (with only really using the identifying abilities of my XO), between Sept and Dec '39 and two warships seems a little tonnage crazy? I see there is a tally on the ubisoft rankings, with obscene amounts of tonnage - I liked the realistic aspect of SH4 with TMO and RSRD, where I was usually in league with the top American Fleet Boat Aces, nothing too unreal. I think this takes the realism aspect down a notch, plus having to finish Western Approaches in the 100k club...well..dunno. I am using DarkWraiths UI mod, IRAI, Dynamic Environment (light) etc. Not tried the Open Horizons Campaign; my theory was that I finish the stock campaign, then check out the modded version. Other than that, good game, better than SH3, but I still leave it open whether a modded SH4 maybe has an more realistic edge over SH5. K.

well then why dont you try
