You know i really got to tell ya, GW is alot more then eye candy. Doubly so after next release. Kapt's gonna strangle me for this, but because im kinda tired of the false "Gw eye candy" comments, im going to give a sneak peak at what you might find coming to you in the next GW.

This is a pre alpha screenshot of some new flotilla configurations ive been working on:

While i can't say anything about the status of the black sea campaign , i can say that the indian ocean campaign is nearing completion, because im the guy whos been working on it.

The following is a series of pre alpha screenshots i made while doing a sanity check on the work ive been doing:

A convoy somewhere in the indian ocean:

Taken just before i went in for a periscope attack. Scored 3 hits.

Unfortuantly for me, the weather was a bit too calm which made for great sonar conditions, and the reworked sensors made my life a little more..... intresting.. Infact, here's me after being forced to the surface by a depth charge that exploded along my starboard side along the hull. It destroyed both disal engines and i lost 75% of my fuel. Obviously im just waiting for the bitter end as the escort that did the depth charging, now does the ramming.

I'm such a popular guy, he went out of his way to say hello.

Close encounters of the worst kind:

Now whats intresting about these screenshots is that the ramming escort is actually shielding me from incoming shellfire. Im sitting there at about 5% hull integrity, wondering why im not dead yet. Not a GW bug, just a bug with the AI in general that cannot be fixed. Then again, friendly fire does occur in war, so why not in sh3 as well?

After this picture, im obviously sunk. The whole affair made for a great show.

Now all of this is a work in progress, and all of this, is IN ADDITION TO what is already in the GW mod. So, just eye candy? I don't think so
