Silent Hunter Series (and other sub games)

[pTrevTrevs]

I know that space sims and sub sims are two very different types of games, but I've seen a few people on this forum who play the Silent Hunter games. I myself own SH5, and it's a pretty ok game, despite the fact that it seems to be largely unfinished.

This thread is for us part time submariners to discuss Silent Hunter, post screenshots, develop tactics, etc. Maybe it will take off, maybe it won't get a lot of views, I won't really be surprised either way.

Any other submarine games besides Silent Hunter are welcome too, since the genre isn't as big as it might be.

I did get Sh5, and found it quite fun (Though I eventually stopped playing because the game was too unfinished). Does anybody know of the mods which improve the game, as I think it would get better by installing a few of them.

Anyways, I've found that there have been a couple decent mobile sub games. Crash Dive played quite well, though felt like a toned down version of the Silent Hunters.

Atlantic Fleet is probably the most fun I've had with a mobile game. Although it is turn based, it has quite good submarine mechanics, and actually quite good all around ship combat mechanics. If you have the money to get it, I do recommend it.

I've not kept up with this game, but my brother really likes it and you can micromanage just about every aspect of running a sub.
