So, what boat you got?
 
Started a career in PH'41, Tambor class and got USS Tautog . Somehow knew it would be the Tautog. First mission I'm still on is to patrol off Honshu and I've deckgunned two large composite freighters for a total of 14k tons. I need to get the hang of the TDC better and get back in the rythm of setting up attacks.

have the tambor class USS Triton....

it is january '42 and have started second patrol off Honshu.

My first patrol was in the Marshalls, sunk a small Patrol Craft and damaged a smallish AK in a port. No other sightings except for US ships.

Right now am saved about 700 miles off Japan, hope to play a bit tonight.

Saved it, and started doing the subschools, espically the torpedo missions, because full manual needs a bit of practice...

Same here, started in PH'41 and got the Tautog as well.

Tambor class I think 10 tubes, 6 fore, 4 aft.

Kaleu_Mihoo 03-22-07 05:37 PM

IIRC yo can't get anything bigger than 10 (6-4) tubes at all...

Well, the Tambor got bombed to hell on her second patrol. Now I'm back at Pearl, Dec 9 1941 in command of USS Triton.

New boat, for new career, the USS Greyback.

First patrol, to Honshu, 1.1 style.

I'm supposed to live up to a good career, untill '44, that is.

Who said this would be easy?
