i still need my german fix. so sh3 gets fired up as well as sh4. i've got to admit it jsut feels ODD being an american sub. german is fine, hell i'd even go japanese (midget subs ftw) but allied? it just feels wrong.

No, but not because it looks old... just waiting for GWX 1.04.

...and not playing SH4 because waiting for patch 1.4..

No sub action at all at the moment and just World in Conflict to pass the time which I think's very overated. A five year old could play it and win... point click kill, point click kill, point click... kill.

American Submarine warfare is the opposite of the battle of the Atlantic. Basically I've found that my odds of surviving the war in the Pacific as being about 70-80 percent. Surviving the war as a U-boat skipper? About 0%. But it's fun to see how far I can get.

And it's nice to see 60 ship convoys once in a while (I scripted my SH3 campaign with looping convoys because the random ones suck IMO). By scripting them I can have very different escort configurations, sometimes with sweepers 10,000 meters away from the main body. And after scripting a couple hundred convoys--there's no way of knowing what you'll run into. The downside is they don't go into ports but just get close and turn around and head back. It'd rare to see the same convoy twice in a career though.

I recently reinstalled it plus SHIII Commander 2.7, and GWX 1.03 with 1.03 expansion, plus some other mods.
