Just another introduction..:)

Hi All,

Have been lurking around this forum for quite a while now, basicly since I started playing this wonderfull game. Before this came I had some subsim experience with Silent service 1, 688 attack sub and redstorm rising. Weirdly enough I never played AOTD, which appearantly was(or still is) a wonderfull game as well.

All that I couldn't figure out myself about this game I found on this forum by just going through the different topics. I started out playing on an easy level like 60% with auto targeting on and all the eyecandy turned on ofcourse..

Anyways, since a couple of days I am now playing on 88% using manual targetting and only have the map updates and external view unchecked. (External view will be checked soon too but since I am still practising my shooting skills its easier to see what my torpedoes do after I came up with a solution.) I've started a new campaing with the 88% settings and so far I am quite satisfied with 3 patrols completed (2043/8078/23720 tons) where the last patrol was done in a VIIB.

By the way I am living in the netherlands but am in the middle of the proces of obtaining a visa so my wife, daughter and me can move to the states. I'll try to keep posting from now on and share my experiences with you all but don't know how much I will be able too since everything is quite hectic around here..

Well it was a longer introduction then I ment it to be but oh well..

Its nice to meet you guys and happy hunting to you all!

Greetings to a future American citizen....hopefully. We do have a large Dutch contingent here too.

We just filed the necessary papers at the American embassy and are now collecting even more papers which they need to set my medical and mental exam and after that the interview.....The way it looks I will be moving in May....

I hope I'll pass the mental though...am playing this game too much..

Welcome, and good luck with all the paperwork.

Well I have the good fortune that my wife is taking care of all the documents since she knows more about the immigration procedures, all I have to do is sign here and there and go across the country to collect all information we need..
