What experience do you have with the Pacific Theater of Operations
 

With the peding release of Silent Hunter 4 I am curious how knowledgeable people are here at Subsim with both American submarines and the Pacific war. Be honest and post here your knowledge of this soon to be released game.

what exactly do you want to know because there is so much info to give from that genarlization of a question. not trying to be rude. sorry if it sounds that way

The post was part of the poll I created.

Hmmm...not a whole helluva alot really,aside from some anecdotetal stuff.I did read the book about the archerfish's sinking of the shinano,curious that was the only ship the archerfish sunk,and they did a book on it.I guess it just was'nt as sexy as the atlantic even thou alot,well a few notable warship sinking's occured there,kako,shokaku destoyer's etc...
I guess the most notable thing I remeber was'nt from a history book but sub game.I belive it was silent hunter I.It was in like the second page of the manual where they did a bar graph of japanese ships sunk by plane, ship,and submarine.The graph for "sunk by american submarines" was greater than all the other two combined.

Two sh1 careers from 1941 to 1945,

very difficult in shallow waters and japanese elite scorts :hmm:

three japanese submarines and yamato battleship

I led Allied forces to victory in the strategic level game War in the Pacific. You get every Allied sub USN, British and Dutch to deploy in that one.

I was on a destroyer in the Pacific, but 25 years after WW2 ended, so it means nothing.

Read a lot.

I put down that I'm a Technical Wizard.:rotfl:

I recently found out that Submarines can go underwater, the pacifc is an Ocean, water is a form of liquid and the world isnt actualy flat...... so id say im a walking library when it comes to this theatre :up:

I bombed Pearl Harbor.

Oops. You're all gonna be hating on me now...:damn:

Hey, I forgot, is Japan the big one or the little one?
