Your favorite boat?
 
Your favorite boat?

none of the above poll list. :p

but add something like Klass 214, Klass 212 or Typhoon then u get my vote :)

bit tired of the same old rusty tubs

I think it was obvious he meant your favorite to drive in SH4. Do you know SH4? There are boards for the games that let you drive some of the subs you mentioned; and if not, get somebody to make one.:sunny:

I have a lot of trouble answering this question. For performance, sure, a Balao-class, but most of my best SH IV moments are associated with particular boats, not the class itself.

Like when I tore into a convoy of light passenger carriers south of the Phillipines in the Sargo...or turned a photo recon into a raid on Osaka with the Grampus...or marvelled at how cool an Ise-class battleship looks doing a sharp turn through the periscope of the S-31.

Etc.

That said, gonna vote for the Salmon/Sargos. Something about them I like.

Salmon/Sargo's for me aswell. They strike a rather nice balance between the two extremes of the S-Class and Balao.

Not to mention I've commanded the Sailfish in 4 seperate careers, and shes hasn't let me down once.

Gato, specifically the USS Drum because I actually went aboard this boat in Mobile , Alabama. Having been aboard the boat sort of personalizes the experience for me.

claybirdd 10-23-07 02:23 PM

Whats up letterboy. I to have been aboard the Drum, and just as you said it does
give the game a little more umph. personally i like the sargo class purely for asthetics. btw letterboy i live in Auburn, Al. Were like 30 min. apart.

Ducimus 10-23-07 04:57 PM

After alot of reflection, i have concluded that my favorite class of sub is the Tambor, more specifically, the USS Tautog. So i joined the bandwagon, and placed the emblem of my favorite boat in my forum sig :88)

Sugar boats are fun and challenging because they are fragile and have limitations, but I voted Baleo because its the biggest and baddest of all boats listed. :rock:

u-168 10-26-07 03:57 PM

yep
 
the salmon or the Balao class sub the bigger the better foe me:up:




u-168

Balao
 
Balao for me. There will always be a place for the sugar boats too. I have command of the USS Balao as of now and it's 1944. Gato comes in second though, as I've sunk a lot of tonnage with the USS Drum:sunny: . Kind of sad 1945 is approaching and I know the war is gonna end along with my great carrer I've had :cry:. I have only found the Yam Toe Yamato once, but only was able to send 4 torps before I got chased down by the tin cans. That is one of my goals before my career is over. Maybe we will meet again, I just have to find ole Yam Toe.
