I have been pondering on this for a few hours, and I think I know why I love it so much

It is absolutely perfect as a loading screen for Fall of the Rising Sun

First off - it is framed beautifully - having the sub surfacing in the middle of this shot, with the sunrise just behind it looks awesome

But also - and this is important - the mod name is Fall of the Rising Sun

Not only can we see the actual rising sun in the background, we can also see the rising sun flag
Quite symbolic, it keys in with the name of the mod

But that is not all

Having the US Fleetboat surfacing just in front of the Rising Sun - that is brilliant

One of the arms of the US Military that was directly responsible for the FALL of the Rising Sun Empire is right there in the foreground, coming up to ensure the Rising Suns Fall

It pretty much sums up the entire mod, and the game as a whole

I do not know if this was intentional on your part, or just happy coincidence

Either way - it is just about perfect
Thanks, max. Glad you like it. When I made the screenshot I wasn't really thinking about the symbolism, it did turn out nice though. In reality it was for a new sig at the time.
