What kind of subsim skipper are you?

HARDCORE SUBSIM SKIPPER

[Victor_Bowman]

NUKE SUBSIM SKIPPER

Periscopes are for wimps. Let's face it, any snapperhead can bring a WWII subsim to periscope depth, lock onto the red triangle and plug away. Real men never get closer than 8000 yards to their target. Your subsim of choice is made by a company in Waterford, Conn. You thrive on complex Target-Motion Analysis equations, deciphering broadband contacts, and gauging ESM signal strength. You are paler than Siberian stripper and proud of it. You long for the day you can take your Seawolf class nuke into an online game against a whole fleet of Type VIICs. One ADCAP equals "make my day".

I find this very intriguing, as I find U-Boats a lot more fun to drive.

"No doubt about it, you are hardcore. You are the kind of subsim player who pins up the Kriegsmarine gridmap on your wall, you use a redlamp when playing at night, your wife lets you know her mother is visiting by shouting "Alarm!" and you didn't know--or care--that Silent Hunter III has a save game feature. You cut your teeth plotting attacks in Gato, sank 28,000 tons in your first Aces of the Deep patrol, and played Dangerous Waters at 100% realism. You scoff at wannabes who whine about some niggling detail in a subsim but use the red triangle-infested auto TDC and auto-map updates. You never, ever, use anything but full realism.

You are the "sim" in Subsim."

....I have a Kriegsmarine map in a frame hanging above my monitor, a red-light lamp on my desk and still play Aces of the Deep.

Formal inspections by higher authority are bound to be stressful.

Salute Admirals, Captains, Cadets, Everyone,

am rather new to SubSim forums, just stopping by and saying hi.
Been browsing these forums over the last 3-4 years, looking for guides, tips, scenarios, you name it... Found a lot of helpful info; and finally decided to join up.

My kind of thrill are mainly sim's and strategies like Dangerous waters (obviously ) and CMANO (Command Modern/Air Naval Operations) AKA Harpoon sucessor.

Currently playing DW combined with RA 1.40. (CrazyIvan sure did a damn fine and proper job.)

Personal sidenote: Red army choir as a background music during mine laying ops adds up to the realism of DW and makes playtime atmosphere more interesting especially when most of your panels are written in cyrillic.

My result: NUCLEAR SUBSIM SKIPPER.

..would just like to add that I am completely satisfied with the outcome.
