I kicked in $100 on behalf of Subsim. I will add to that in a couple weeks.

It looks like a fun game, a different flavor from the first person perspective. Would love to see this game succeed.

I was sceptical at first, because it looked to arcade. But I think it's a very interesting concept after reading the description, and understanding that they are focusing more on the crew and less on a simulating the U-boat.

That's an aspect I'm missing in Silent Hunter.

That' what makes the game interesting, it will be a new slant on U-Boat war.

Mud, if you want, you can send the contribution to me via PP and I will pass it on to Kickstarter.

I was a bit skeptical first but there may be some mileage in this. Plus, it is not as if we have a lot of new releases in the submarine department so that alone is a reason to support this (just did it).

What a nice surprise - PLEDGED! I was very (very) tempted to pledge $500, but then I'd feel guilty if you fellas had to stare at my ugly mug every time you played

This definitely reminds me of B-17 II. I haven't been this excited for a game in a long time - the feelings I had keeping up with Wayward/Microprose's design (following every last nugget of info on SimHQ, watching and re-watching teaser trailers) is something I can see myself doing again with this game.

Best of luck to the devs und fette beute!

Looks promising, wonder if it has a free patrol system like SH5 and a first person character as well!

This looks very interesting and I can't wait to try it! Hope the system requirements are not too high so my humble machine can master it.

Good luck with all your work and release dear devs!

Good move Neal.

This game looks great!

Are they still accepting funds or is the crowd fund ended now? I did check the web site and I see the end date is passed but there is still a donate button there so thought I would check here first.

Will the Atlantic campaign be heavily scripted or rather based on random encounters? I ask because of the replay value, considering randomness of encounters and manual targeting we might get a game where U Boot fans can put a lot of time into! I'm quite excited about the game and surely gonna get it once it reaches its release date

What did you find out? I think the KS was finished some time earlier this year.
