Default How did you get into submarines?

Off to the side, and ironically, on the bottom was a copy of SHIII. I didn't buy it, but instead read review after review and immediately floored the pedal to the nearest BB.

I'm utterly speechless and my wife is about to lose it. A few very minor issues, but overall SHIII is absolutely up-all-night-no-sleep amazing. I am blown away.


p.s.
It's disappointing that there are no other ships and subs in my own harbor and docked at Wilhemshaven. Where's the traffic? I appreciate the upgraded buildings, but the port should be busy, at least have some ships stationed and tied up. Just my $0.02. Or am I missing something?
Welcome aboard, Teufelschiff!
