I tried to download GreyWolves to my EMEA DVD but it did not work all I got was a mega crash.
I think the best Add-on option for Europe is SeaWolves @ Play.com.
I think its cool anyway.

Sorry my mistake I should have explained!
My game is on EMEA DVD disc.
When I downloaded GreyWolves it would not play because Europe and USA DVD's use a different format for playback.
I must say that I think SeaWolves is a better mod in my opinion.

I've been playing SHIII for about a year now. The last two months I installed RUB and enjoyed some of the tweaks but it didn't change the experience from the stock install. However, yesterday I installed Greywolves 1.1.
I can tell you my enthusiasm for this game has been given a gigantic boost!
On my first encounter off the east coast of england was a simple tramp merchant. Decided it wasn't worth a torpedo so went at it with the deck gun.
After about 10 minutes of game time here comes a pt boat to the rescue. I was still experiementing so I decided to duel it out with the pt boat. Four direct hits with HE later he turns tail and speeds away at 17 knots spewing fire both fore and aft (damaged but not fatally).
I think now, to finish the tramp! Ha, my plans were interrupted again! Two V&W Destroyers on the horizon and shelling the area from long range!
The situation is becoming untenable, so I submerge get off an aft tube shot at the tramp, drop to 40 meters, silent running and 2 knots speed east to get to deeper water.
Boom, the tramp finally becomes scrap metal. Boom Boom Boom, the destroyers are hot on my tail. They don't let up for 3 HOURS!!! I'm sweating, cursing, and enjoying every minute of the escape.
In retrospect, it definately wasn't worth going after the tramp for just 2,000 tons. However, the improved AI behavior, the new graphic skins, overlays, music, and everything else I experienced in that encounter have recharged my batteries to 100%!
My hats off to all involved in this supermod! I can't wait to get back to sea and see what else this has to offer!

Does the Grey Wolves mod incorporate the NYGM Tonnage War sinking model; you know, the one where you must sink enemy ships by flooding as compared to the regular damage model whereby you sink ships by inflicting X number of hit points to sink?

Wow, that looks awesome, BR! One last question: can I still use SH3 Commander with this mod? If so, then this sounds like the must-have mod of all time.
