Pick the best sub to begin, see everything, get to know were is the butons and levers.

Shout "AAALLLLLAAAARRRRRRRMMMMMMMMMM", to see how the crew and the sub performs and see all the faces of my crew stering at me and some one just doing the "he's crazy or something" gesture...

Same.. I always like to start as a underdog and look forward to the better things to come :up:

Il have great fun taking the S class out for a few patrols.... might even keep it for the first few years of the war :smug:

I'm with you IB!

I'll take a S-class (S-38) in the Philippines. The first place I'm heading is Lingayen Gulf. There should be a nice bunch of fat Japanese troopships disembarking troops for the invavasion of Luzon, just waiting to be sunk.




cdrsubron7 :D :up:

Something out of the NYC area. I want to see Manhattan.

Other than that, an S-Class.

I for sure will start with a Perch Class submarine, USS Pompano (SS181) if it is available. Why? Well...when we started developing Pacific Aces for Sh2 it kicked off as a mod to drive the perch class subs. Only those and the tambors were supported in SH2 originally, but Tambor had 6 forward and 4 rear torpedo tubes and we could not add them back them -later Sergburto came aboard and did it- so I researched a lot about Perch class subs and fell inlove with them. Nearly as bad as a S-class sub, almost equally heroic, but probably way more anonymous to everyone. So, as a respectful hommage to those submarines, I will start with one of them. And Pompano, which was lost in campaign, seems the right choice.

Looking forward a lot to go again on patrol in the big Pacific on the bridge of a Perch sub!:rock:

As long as it has Fish and can go to see i would use a bath tub pacific here i come:up:

I've been given this some thought. I want to play with some S class boats, but my first carrer I would like to start with the Permit SS-178. I remember being down the pier from the nuclear one, so that will give some attachment. I hope to move to the Silversides SS-236 or Drum SS-228 as early as possible though.

One I will definately shy away from is the Scorpion SS-278. I'm not supperstitious, but I shant tempt fate:arrgh!:

you could go hunting German warships in the Atlantic... apparantly there are still german and allied vessles up in the atlantic so it might make for a good trip....... in a fleet sub of course.. dont want to be running out of fuel and food half way in my S class ;)

i consider all the other pre-44 US subs under dogs of the S and V boats as the S had torpedos that acctuely work and could go in shalower water and had a smaller sillowet, and the V's as thay could do other stuff as wall as normal patroles (in therey any way) and had BIG cruser deckguns (other subs got them in late 44) but thats just me.:|\\

I'll start out with training command in what ever boat they offer me. when time is ready to go on a war patrol I will just take the boat the Admital proposes. He knows best, afterall he is the Admiral :D

Balao class, a honor to my superhero Lt. Cmdr. Tom Dodge...:up: :rock: :arrgh!:

I'll probably go for a Gato-class, provided the class is available in 1942.

I'll take whatever is available in mid May of '42 and go see if I can find me some flattops off Midway in early June. I like my first victim to be the Akagi........

Although i have played sh3 i will do the tutorial missions in what ever sub they give me (hopefully an S-class). Then i will want to play two campains. First an S-class bases at Cavite and follow that carrer to (hopefully) Australia, my county of birth:rock: , then were ever they send me. Most of my patrols will be around the islands of SE Asia, alot of action. Secondly i want to be based at Midway (I love Midway:sunny: ) and operating around the Japanese home islands.
