I have been playing SH3 for tens months. Just now I was attacking a small convoy in the beta Seawolves med. I called in air support and got into a shoot out with the escorts a Destroyer and 2 of those new Frigates (Sloops) The Luftwaffe arrived and sank a troop ship and a small tanker and one Ju88 that was shot down crashed into the Frigate about 200 yards from my peri view. Very cool. I sank the destroyer and a merchant but took some DCes in the stern area causing major (red) flooding in three compartments and destroying half my batteries and one electric engine. The boat started plunging so I blew ballast three times went to flank forward (2Kts with all the damage) and crept my way back from 180 meters.
One Frigate was still after me as by now the convoy was clear with one Frigate staying with the merchant ships.
I had no choice, I had to surface.
I fired 2 fish but the range was too close. I went to the deck gun in desperation but these sloops have three gun positions so I went back to lining up the last 2 fish for a 90% angle shot but his last broadside was too much, he nailed me good and U-83 went down.
This was the best struggle I have ever had in SH3 of this type. It was an hour of constant fighting to save the boat after the first damage.
I have had many new unique experiences with this add on that I never had before and many new ships and effects have really made this a different game in many ways.
Even setting up to attack a convoy after dusk and realizing at the last minute it was a friendly convoy taking supplies to Rommel with a cruiser escort (above screen) was a new experience.
However, sharing these things and hoping the thousands that buy this add on might wish to come to a friendly forum and learn from some knowledgeable people and enlarge our community seems like an unwelcome thought.
Perhaps it is better that Seawolves buyers go to another site where they will not be attacked for enjoying an add on.
I can check with other sites and have them add a SH3 forum where these people can go and not contaminate the elitist crowd that should not condescend to anyone that enjoys Seawolves.
It is surely beneath you.
I am surprised the moderators have not banned me for enjoying Seawolves and sharing what I believe will add to the enjoyment on SH3 players.
I have a Seawolves and regular version on my bigger PC as they are unique enough to want both.
You are correct Seaserpent in that I should not assume small minded hate group supporters that are homophobic and can only debate a position by name calling and low mentality remarks could even consider an alternative to their way or the highway.

While I am not gay (I have had 4 children and have 6 grandchildren) I have no problem with any such group and assure any that may be gay the majority of people here are not infantile homophobic disrespectful children such as Subserpent. This usually indicates a hidden attraction but I think his remarks speak for themselves.

How about others? Do you think mentioning Seawolves in anything but trashing the add-on should be forbidden on this forum?
Do you want to completely ignore the upgrades or hearing about them at all?
Out of site, out of mind?
I get nothing for sharing my experience and since I do not work for them I feel like a neutral observer that can offer update notifications as well as help after it is released. I can stop posting completely on this subject and if this forum prefers that for the sake of peace I respectfully ask any moderator to make the request and it will happen. Then when a new person comes on and ask you can go back to your hate crusade and those people can learn they are not welcome here.
