On the contrary, it is perfectly possible to simulate some aspects of submarine warfare quite accurately using paper, pencils, and dice. It all depends on which aspects you wish to simulate, and to what level of accuracy.
There is nothing you can simulate about being in a uboat with paper, pencils, and dice, unless you are actually using a paper, pencils, and dice inside a uboat.

I'm afraid I have no better understanding of what you are looking for than before you wrote your post. What parameters? And what degree of "realism" (sic)? More precisely, what aspects of the simulation do you want to see modeled more accurately?
None. I'm generally quite happy with the parameters of SH3. I was not trying to imply any kind of shortcoming with SH3.

I'm just saying that I'm not looking for realism, because that can't be done using a computer and a LCD screen. I'm just looking for realistic parameters of the performance of the things modeled in the simulation.

SH3 is of course not perfect, but I am content with it.
