Silence. NOT! I have played this game/affliction so long my mind fills in all the game sounds. PLUS all the moaning and cries of panic as my opponent (Name i cant remember) sinks my ships.[X(][X(][X(]

Mostly I listen to the sound of ice floating in a sea of Barcardi spiced oakheart rum mixed with caffeine free diet cola. It does wonders for all the disasters I am subjected to!!!

Usually I listen live365 classic blues radio (usually here http://www.live365.com/stations/dj_ron, but now it's offline, you can actually listen it at https://www.radionomy.com/en/radio/classicbluesradio/ ). Well, I know, I'm the Emperor but...blues it's blues.



That's the station I used to listen to also, until it went off the air in late January. Thanks for the new link. In the meantime I usually listen to http://aardvarkbluesfm.com. It'a not too bad.

When I'm winning.

When I'm losing.

When a carrier battle is taking place.

All in my head, of course.
You listen to an OKOS Yogurt commercial when you are losing?? [:'(]

Agreed - a very underrated track

I actually prefer this Depeche Mode song. Although I can understand if you do not like it since they taunt the little guns on HMS Warspite. [;)]

Over here the generic term for such 1980's European music was 'eurotrash'. [:D]
I'm not sure they were being polite enough.

If I listen to anything while doing orders that isn't my "normal" listening stuff, such as it is (I don't often listen to music as often as I watch/listen to an episode of something on my other monitor), it's these old school game OST's:
1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9zo5wV ... 687C3B399E (best)
2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qURei6s ... 60014748B6 (great for getting into a groove, even listen to this when working sometimes)
