Newer Captain, couple questions.

Hey all, I'm fairly new to SH4 (coming from SHIII + GWXGold some years back). I've played a few patrols with GFO, and looking to amp up the challenge a little. Have been reading a great deal of the posts here regarding the suggested modifications, and have already downloaded and installed TMO2.5 and love the changes so far. My question however lies with the RSRD Campaign. I've heard a lot about how the mod changes the patrol routes to historical realism and re-writes the campaign, however having never tried the stock campaign I'm hesitant to make changes to what I haven't tried. My concern is that it will make the sim 'too real' and take the fun out of it, if that makes sense. Any comments or concerns on this issue? I'm already sold on TMO, just concerned that if I don't study the right history, read the right books, or DL the right maps, I'll be out in the ocean for days with no wrecking of IJN merchants.

Thank you in advance.
