Ahoy! Newbie asks permission to come on board...

Ahoy everybody!

Despite my age, I have first discovered sub simulators about a
year ago.

I got so tired of FPS games and I never even played any
of those overdone RPG's. So I gave SH4 a try and thought:
Well that could be something... Game pace and intricate
strategy - you kinda have to put in the work and time to get
some results.

PLUS:
I'm a pipe smoker - and those long missions give me ample
opportunity to smoke.

I own only 3 submarine simulator games: SH3 - GWX 3.0,
SH4 with the U-Boat Missions and SH5.

Right now I almost exclusively play SH3.

As to other games: I like strategy games: Played the whole
Settlers series, I like DEFCON and certain games from the Total War
series.

Thanks for welcoming me.

Good hunting!

Yoshiki, welcome aboard!

DEFCON is one of my favorites too. Have you played Age of Empires?

No Sir - but 'Empire Earth'. A good game, but the graphics are
sub-standard to say the least. (probably I'm spoiled by 'Settlers'...).

I will check out 'Age of Empires'!

As to DEFCON: The game is brilliant and behind the simplicity of the
user interface 'lurks' a fairly complex gameplay with lots of decisions
to be made as the TNW escalates.

However - I'd like the map to have more details. I mean: Most launch sites
are known to the enemy without radar - and so are crucial targets like
NORAD and bases.

The only unknowns are the nuclear subs (who are now capable of
launching ICBMs) and MRBMs/SRBMs on 'trucks'.
