Hello to all

Hello everyone. I thought i’d make an introduction since i reckon this is a very warm forum, plus i am new here. So, my name is Chris, a journalist, location is Athens and i recently started playing Silent Hunter III. It’s been almost 2 years that i had In my mind to give it a shot because i love submarines, but given it’s expected complexity i left it for later.

So now, it seems that is the right time. I have many questions regarding the various aspects of the game but before i post i always try to find already given answers. I was always into war games, rts and shooters and wwii is my favourite theme. The good old Blitzkrieg holds a special place in my heart and I never uninstall it. This seems to be the case for SH III.

Browsing through this site, i’ve seen some naval games that have caught my attention and in general, i think i’d like to invest some time in this kind of games which is new for me.
So, that’s it, i am looking forward to learning tricks of the game, reading news here and interacting with other skippers. Cheers to all!

Great Introduction Chris " foo_jam2002 " . Silent Hunter 3 is a great Sim, no doubt, especially with modifications. As far as complexity, you can adjust the realism level to match your skills and as your abilities increase, change the realism level to make it more difficult.

If you have a chance, give Silent Hunter 4 and 5 a chance as well. There are modifications available for these " Sims : as well.

Enjoy your time here and welcome aboard.
