<t> Thanks for the welcome. Been playing as best I can during my planning period at school. Game is tough....feel like an Ensign! Another question? In some senariors my subs run around? They're well off the beach? How do you tell where the shallow water is? <br/>

Only had this game a couple of days ...

Fifth try was the trick! Got it opened....thanks again for your help.

Thanks for your reply. I downloaded it again. This time it took a lot longer. Then it tried to unzip and said at the end "file corrupt." I'm running Windows Vista.

Just downloaded the game and for some reason I can't unzip/start the game. Probably me, but could use some help. Unzip error reads "archieve is either unknown format or damaged" Not sure why, but also keeps asking for me to buy WinRAR to download. Thanks! [&o]

You guys all set?

1. How's the game compared to UV?
2. It appears it's only CVTF vs CVTF?
3. No fighting to take bases or long term battle plans?
4. No PBEM?
5. No disc yet?
6. Worth the $60?

Thanks for any input.....[&o]

Sorry got somebody....Thanks though
