Terrapin has used this forum to advertise his site. Is that moral?
It's something to consider when thinking about his criticisms of X1.

I don't want to get involved in flame wars. I enjoy his sites but I also think that his using this forum to advertise his own site points out how much easier it is to reach an opinion about someone else's actions than your own.

To Stymus I say that the wrongs committed fifty years ago are as severe now as they were then. People at war always believe that God is on their side. I agree with you that U-Boat sailors thought they were doing the right thing as did their opponents who depth-charged them. That really isn't the issue.

I happen to agree with Homer and Arisotle that depiction of violence is often the essence of art in any form . It's just that many people do not agree and for those people SHIII is a morally questionable product for whom X1's possible impropriety is trivial.
I understand that modders do not feel the same way. It's all a question of POV.
