New to the board here
Just ordered SH4. Do I need a strategy guide for this game? Also, the keyboard and mouse is all I need right?

I don't know what version you got, hope it is the Gold? If you did you are all set, that will put you at version 1.5. If not you will need to patch it to 1.4 or it will not work worth a hoot.

Radioman, you will still be able to play and enjoy SH4 in plain vanilla, so don't be alarmed, but it would be a better experience with the mods.
 This grand crowd will help you every step of the way.

If you enjoy the game, then you can consider getting the Uboat missions add on pack. That runs about $9.99 or if you watch for specials, you may find the gold edition for about the same price and that includes both. The add on does not just give you uboats but it also updates the original game to 1.5. Most of the major mods use 1.5 but there are still some mods for 1.4. So don't worry you will be fine. Since you are a beginner you will get a lot of use out of the original version without having the upgrade to 1.5. I got a lot of use out of mine before adding the 1.5.
