Brag are you still in South America?

Good review, it seems you played a good deal of the game. PT Boats sounds fun, but I think I may try this game when the price drops. Without a good campaign or some kind of scenario generator, the game is not worth the normal $50 game price point.

This game is based on the Storm Engine (POTC, Sea Dogs, etc) and I have extensive modding experience (specifically, in making ship handling more realistic), but I'm a bit put off by the very limited gameplay offered.

Might stick to POTC for the New Horizons beta ( which I've contributed to).

There have been submarine sims, naval sims with battleships, cruisers, and destroyers, but this game is the first to feature the speedy buy lethal Motor Torpedo Boats, or as they were called in the US--Patrol Torpedo, PT Boats

Maybe you're making a clear distinction, but I used to play the cracking PT 109 simulator in the late 80s and early 90s.
