How Many Campaigns Do You Play At 1 Time?

Fish40 · 07-19-12, 09:16 AM

I currently have three campaigns going, at different times during the war, in three different subs. One in 44' in a late war configured Gato, including the Measure 32 paint scheme, another in 43' in a Tambor class with just the first conning tower fairwater upgrade, and my newest and earliest is in 42' in a Sargo class sub. I intend to try to finish the war in these same subs. How about you guys?

Wel, MultiSH4 gave me the ability to have GFO, TMO, FOTRS, and RFB going at once, so I have 4 going at the moment.

Just one. I use to always start at the wars beginning and try to make it to the end without dying or using saves. Now I usually do 5-6 patrols per career and start up later war.

I still haven't accomplished my goal, a complete career with cams and contacts off, no saves, death means start over. I made it once to late 44
that way, but got killed in Formosa.

Similar to Hylander, I have MultiSH4, I have 5 installs....TMO, RFB, GFO, OMEGU, and a STOCK for mod testing.

Back in the SH1 days they offered two strart locations: Pearl Harbor and Manila. This led me to start two side-by-side careers, one from each base. As other bases were added I started new parallel careers. If one retired or died I started a new one at that same month.

Today I have three careers going in SH3, one from each flotilla. In SH4 I have the same thing at the same time, all in u-boats. If I ever actually get to 1942 I'll be running fleet boat careers as well, all simultaneous. Someday I might actually reach the end of the war.

Never thought of trying multi SH4, since I'm a die hard RFB/realism fan, and that's the only mod that I enjoyed. With the gradual decline of RFB users and development of the mod, I may change my mind.

Actually Fish, I kinda do a little "kit bashing" now. I take elements from the others where I can, and apply them to each one. It took some trial and error, but I have it working pretty good now after a couple months.

So in some respects they all play similar, but since each one of the mega mods has its own distinct approach, as to what the author(s) wanted to provide.

And what I swapped out from the different mods wasn't anything really that drastic of a change.

I did the same thing. Now I'm content for one campaign at a time. If I decide to try two, it will probably be one in SH4 and the second in SH3.

Been playing SH 4 with two careers and recently bought SH 5 and started playing one career a total of 3. Keeping track of the different games is making me wacky
