Hello,
I started to play a new Campaign with the amazing GWX OneAlex Edition Mod compilation.
I like a challenge, so these will be the rules for this Campaign:
- Dead is dead. When I die, the campaign ends.
- Full realism settings. Only the external camera is allowed for filming purposes
- Manual Targeting
- No recognition manual for random merchant ships
- Attempt to abide by the historical orders in regards to the London Naval Treaty, Operating Procedures and Restrictions
Will this be a long campaign or will I die fairly soon?
You are very welcome to watch how I progress and to discuss it
