Now that we have so many poll options. . . Your favourite U-Boat type?
 
Vote!:D

Oh and I merged the two Type II's because of the lack of poll options. They are the least used boats after all (I think).:cool:

The Type II I actually really, really, really love. The interior, the size, the poor stats, everything. It just feels so much more real, snug, and down-to-Earth than the other subs.

I love the IIs but the VII-B is my fav just because its the first real sub you get if you start in 39 and with the II. It feels like getting your full driver's liscense or your first lay. You aren't a real Kaleun until you're burning it up in the Atlantic with the Aces.

IXD2 without a doubt.

Type VII c/40. Its the best of the VII`s, and the shape of the VII looks like a sword! (Slightly from ahead)

Shipwreck 07-03-06 07:46 AM

Yes I like the TII too.

Same here (I like the II-A more, but of course, in a Career you have to upgrade to a VII-B after only a few patrols). It's so great a feeling to be in a Type VII-B after three patrols in a Type II-A. It's like going from a bicycle to a motorbike:arrgh!:.

The other subs like the IX, though, I actually don't like too much, to be honest. They just seem too over-powered to me:cry:.

Type XXI :rock: :rock:

Mooncatt 07-03-06 01:10 PM

v11b all the way

Hartmann 07-03-06 04:20 PM

IXB boat

it´s a good balance in range/torpedoes/dive times/maneurability/ between the tipe VII and the IXD

Also i like big boats since sh1 :up:

Sulikate 07-03-06 05:14 PM

I'm with XXI because... It's simply the best!:arrgh!:

Hawk_308 07-04-06 11:38 PM

I Voted for the VIIC just because I have spent 90% of my time in it . The type II's are fun but I can bag close to 70,000 tons on the U-69 since Ive went over to manual TDC. Patrol 31 on my latest career I sunk 69,8?0 tons all in grids BF13,12,15 late 42 some were sunk early 43 on the way in.The mission cost me every thing on top of my sub between the DCs and Planes but she made it in.Ive came in a lot of times with my haul down to 25% or less .She can push 20 knots on top and a good 8 down under with my crew. But to be fair I still havnt tried a typeIX career yet:hmm:.

enaceo 07-05-06 01:10 AM

I voted for the IX/D2 .I like the IX series a lot ,even if I have spent most of my time in the VII.Why i like it ?Well,it's a bit slower than the VII and a little bigger,but it has more torps and more upgrade potential,which i find better.The XXI is also good,but it is a bit to big and slow-manovering for my liking...but i would love to get those torpedoes on any other sub:D

Alyebard 07-05-06 01:43 AM

The workhorse, the type VII C, :ahoy:

HunterICX 07-05-06 05:48 AM

I mainly like the Type VII boats, especialy the C versions
its a really nice Agile boat, fast dive time , manouverable. good load out.

I also call the type II boats as funny floating bathtubs:smug:
Sometimes I just like to mess with that boat in the english chanal. its just an piece of scrapmetal but still dangerous.:rock:

I also like the IX boats because you can put an hell of an AA on it, I recall them as
floating AA castles :up:

XXI is also a nice long range U boat...but God DAMMIT just when you need them they arent there! I mean the STERN Torpedo's

but my vote goes to the VII C :up:

Sailor Steve 07-05-06 11:56 AM

How many times has this been done now? More than two.

I don't have a favorite; they're all cool.
