Is there a mod to get prototypes?

I remember playing Panzer General 2 and praying for a prototype award in between battles.

It would be great to be rewarded for a high tonnage or large renown patrol with a shiny new eel type or coating or conning tower. Anyways food for thought. :up:

America is now part of the German Reich, Panzer General 2 ;)

Good question for SH3 but I can not see it, I may be wrong. ;) :hmm:

I believe that's what the renown is for.

When I talk about prototypes I mean getting stuff before its actually availability date.

For example the T3 (G7e) is available for renown purchase in June 1942 but its prototype date is much earlier.

As I dont see it available for purchase in July of 1941 when its prototype date is in May 1941. I got these dates from our manual online.

I was thinking when we come into port for our admin duties, after a successful patrol, we would be awarded by being able to purchase random protoypes "early".

I thought renown was primarily for upgrading.

No thanks mate.

Prototype = untested and unreliable.

Not a reward in my book.

I want tried and tested on my boat.

I agree, I want a torpedo that is fully working and will not go wrong in any way.

Don't even get me started on the T2 before the Norwegian campaign. I do take them, but only around 3-5, and about half of them malfunction:damn:

Yep T2's suck.

I avoid them and stay with the steamers till the T3's turn up.
