Currently, the Letters from home mod is a work in progress which, is intended to serve as a total immersion mod by functioning through SH3 Commander.

Letters From Home will provide your Kaluen with an option to check mail at the start of each patrol while in port.

Letters will develop a story line for your family, friends, parents, wives or girlfriends or even your children. Sometimes mail will be held up by allied air raids, in later war years you may not hear from your family at all... and sometimes... your entire family may even be killed in an air raid.

The goal of the Letters from home mod is to not only provide you with something to look forward while being in port between missions... but it is also meant to tell a story of the second world war that is often overlooked; The interpersonal relationship between those at home and those abroad.

The mod is loosely planned to work as follows:

A high number of random story lines are currently in development.

once these story lines are complete (made so by a series of letters that moves the story line along) they will be submitted to JScones for inclusion into a release of SH3 Commander.

when you start a new career in 1939, your commander will be randomly assigned one of these story lines. As the war rages on, the story line will develop in a logical sequence until the completion of the war.

Will your family survive the allied air raids?

will the bomb shelter in your parents basement hold together?

will the advance of the Russian front well into your home town separate you from your family for untold decades as Germany is devided into East and West?

the answers lie in the storied pages of... Letters from home.

progress to be posted in this thread
