This campaign mod aims to make your SH5 experience more enjoyable. The war has been extended to 1945 with the addition of two new campaigns and many new units. See the main OHII thread for more info.
This mods early development was by me Trevally and Zedi with the kind contribution of many friends around subsim: TheDarkWraith, Reaper07, SteelViking, Uekel, Rongel, Stormfly, AOTDMadMax, stoianm, Obelix, TheDivingDuck, Gap. There are many contributor to this mod, if I left out anyone is not intentional and I apologize in advance for this. Also many thanks to Ruby2000 and Ustahl for testing the mod while under developement, they helped a lot in tracking down problems and have them fixed.
Changed mod name because some of the german players found a bit weird the naming "Das Campaign". This mod is a improvement over my first attempt to create and extended campaign, Open Horizons.

There is only one problem with this one ( It is only a little minor problem )
It is that you not longer can select missions - but in fact, you can play the missions anyway if you only write down coordinates in the brifering and use some of you tools in sub to mark the "mission" area - and remember or write down what your mission orders are, then it is fully playable..
This creates almost only a litte "realism" factor, so it is a minor problem...
But it maybe have been better if this have work too... who knows?? Open Horizons Version ???, maybe solves this later..
I'm Mikica elisabetha zora ljiljana Micic and a 40-year-old half Croat and half Serb, I am interested in the u-boat war in the second world war and prefer to play silent hunter 5 because you can experience first hand how the u-boot-war with his dangerous page on the German side and is therefore drawn I download the mods down to the game to make realistic
