With U.S. Fleet boats, you see another way of fighting a submarime war, as dangerous and ultimately more successful than Donitz's effort.

I uninstalled SH3 the day SH4 was released and never regretted it. SH4 is on my hard drive and still gets (some) play time.

If you hate u-boats, why are you posting a thread that is dedicated to only u-boats?

When SH4 was released there was a huge (and I mean HUGE) outcry. Most of the U-boat supporters had the opposite complaint - US fleet boats are boring because the war gets easier as time passes, the tougher things get for the u-boats the better the game is etc. I think both complaints are based on personal preference, and therefore valid as opinions but invalid as complaints.

Me? I love the history and the equipment, so both are wonderful.
