Started with Code Name Sector and knew sub games were for me when I'd end up driving a cruiser while my brothers and sisters had PT boats, and I'd still get the sub. I still have Battline's Submarine board game and until last year I had a working C-64 system with RSR. I've owned all the sub games from SSN-688i through SC. Still have Harpoon 1, 2 and 3, FC and now DW. Stopped playing DC/SHII online to play DW online. Tried most of the flight sims, just could never get into them enough to play online.

Yes. I have to say, I also like your enthusiasm Mr. Kapitain, very much. I say the naval sim community could use another 100,000 more Kapitain's all stampeding over to Battlefront to order a pristine "deluxe" version of Dangerous Waters.

Ahhhhh.........I could almost hear the sound of Sonalysts churning out that Arleigh Burke DDG Add-on..............

mmmmmmm......True Multi-Mission Surface Warfare.......

Nothing wrong with riding on them surface targets. I actually enjoy the OHP. The Arleigh Burke would just be a more dangerous target to hunt.

One that is probably up to killing some godforsaken bubblehead that thinks he is invincible.

About a month ago I disided i wanted to play a challenging game and couldnt really think of anything. I saw a review for Silent Hunter 3 on tv and thought it looked really good and disided i was going to go buy it. I was searching on the web for a online sale and saw subsim.com and thought it was really cool that they accualy had a site about subsims alone. The review on the subsim that i read had references to other subsims so i thought i should check out other sims before disideing SH3 was what i wanted. I read about Sub Command and and fell in love with the akula

. Never heard about stallions until then, just the idea of killing another sub from 30 miles away got me to buy the game. Been playing it sence and heard about DW over the forums and have recently ordered it offline (plan on playing it after i feel i have learned and got everything i can out of sub command. Probabley still go back to sub command for some of its mods and fan made missions).

After getting SC i went out and rented Das Book, and some other sub movies, and bought a few submarine books (have to say Hunt For Red October is my fav sub movie though). Been enjoying the whole thing ever since and hope to get SH3 sometime, probabley wait awile since i dont like cramming games together. Also trying to find a good Akula model.

Want good soviet nuclear sub models? go to Yankee model works on the web! Expensive but beautiful!

I bought a Sierra, a Victor III and an Akula! Building them now.
