Any interest in a 'Silent Hunter' Steam group?

I was thinking about a generic "SubSim.com" Steam group - but that may be both too limiting (there aren't THAT many members here compared to how many people have purchased various subsims over the years...although we certainly have all the cool people

), and perhaps too broad. There is, after all, already a 'Dangerous Waters' Steam group. Although, I have a hunch that MOST people in that group haven't actually purchased DW through the Steam store, as the games the group members play doesn't seem slanted towards sub sims.

ANYWAYS, as both Silent Hunter 3 and Silent Hunter 4 are available on 'Steam' (and both, btw, work fine with mods - I'm using GWX 3.0 on my Sh3 Steam install, and TMO on my Sh4 Steam install), it seemed a natural fit to start a group for, so wanted to bounce that idea around, here. There isn't, AFAIK, any difficulty in setting such a group up, but I hardly wanted to create yet another group that would have almost no members.

(Although, ideally, it would be set up by one of the SubSim.com mods or site admins - re-posting news bits from the site to the Steam group channel, and possibly setting up scheduled events for multiplayer matches or whatnot in the group 'events' section.)
