Another Noob to this sim :)

Hi everyone, I am very new to Submarine simulations with SH3 being my first purchase in this genre. I have been lurking around these forums for quite a while now without posting because of my very noob status on this subject. I have since bought SH4 but am awaiting more RAM for my pc before I can get my hands stuck into this one.

Falcon 4.0 has taken 2nd place for awhile after discovering how good this Sub stuff is

My enthusiasm for anything submarine/naval combat has exploded after playing SH4 briefly. EBay has made a lot of money out of me with all the books I have purchased on this subject recently.

I want to learn more about submarine tactics both modern and old. Also I want to learn more about the destroyer’s capabilities and tactics especially with regards to SH3 and 4. In the game I always get killed by 1 or two destroyer’s zig zagging on my location as I approach a convoy. Do they have excellent radar range or sonar capabilities (please excuse my noob definitions of these terms).

I have got my hands on a copy of Dangerous Waters with all the huge manuals etc. I can’t wait to get stuck into that lot even though I’m lost in the first paragraph of the many manuals that came with it (but secretly I love all that).

Anyway if you could point me in the direction of some good tutorials with regards to tactics etc I will be most grateful.
