It should.

SH3 commander installs itself over whatever you already have in place. So as long as you remember to roll back the commander first, before you add/remove any mods, you should be fine.

Stupid question (more than likely) but is there a way to get a weather report which would accurately tell me wind speed ? I mean, other than just standing on the bridge holding out a wet thumb ?

Your spidey sense as you look at the waves through the periscope before you surface.. If you see alot of white water and foam, and the boats rocking alot, its kind of a clue

You usually dont see white caps tell around 8-9-10 kts winds (somewhere in there). At 15 kt winds, you'll tell right aaway, your boat wont hold periscope depth for crap.

It really depends on the way you play. Hunt only single contacts, take on task forces, attack ports and so on. Now, be a good boy and apologize Ducimus. You hurt his feelings.

What comes to the huge waves. From one point forward, the merchants and warship starts to sink, if the waves are too high. So forget about the giant waves.

Ament to that. :hmm:

Herr Kaleun Ducimus is one of the best. It's only his "luck" that gets him the most biggest and most vicious Air or DD attacks!
