Cold-War Era SH5

But any storyline is by definition a fantasy.

I'm interested in the naval history of ww2. To the extent I can understand more of the history with simulation, it interests me.

Take flight sims. Without having played flight sims (or if you were actually a fighter pilot in RL), you can read every book written about ww2 air combat, and you frankly don't have the first clue when they start talking about dogfights (I had read a huge library of such books before I ever played a flight sim, and after a few years of such sims, I understand exactly what they are talking about when recounting engagements in a way I never did before).

So sure, if I was really interesting in cold war subs, knowing more might jazz me, but I'm not, so it doesn't.
