Not that they wouldn't accept shadows if they get it for free. I think they consider it to be of minor effect only, so they do not ask for it, usually having different demands with higher priority. And judging by screenshots I tend to agree with that. But the military customer is what gives eSim it's income. It's that customer, not us interested novices, whose demands decide the form and content of the sim.

While good graphics are always welcome (SH3), the best strength of this sim is definitely the realism, it's like Dangerous Waters on land, but better.

If I jump over to the DW forum and tell them that, this time I would get crucified, no doubt
It's a study sim, "study" not refering towards immense manuals, but learning tactics and operating with formational cohesion, and developing a good plan and timetable. It is easy to learn how to operate the tanks and vehicles - tactics is what makes this sim so difficult, and firing in emergency mode, with secodary sights only and LRF gone.
SBG was the most lethal sim/game I ever played, even more so than Flashpoint. I excpect SBP to be even more unforgiving on my mistakes.
