...a real STOPWATCH. And you are taught in the tutorials how to use the real stopwatch to time torpedos, attacks, plots and how to use it to dodge incoming torps etc...

SO much better than an on-screen one that only ever really seems to get in the way...

On easy levels, it's all done on the computer and you don't need to time stuff yourself to work out the attack solution etc..

On 'Realistic' level, you have to (or have the option to) do all the timing yourself and all the mental calculations that real WW2 sub Captains would have to do. Plus it would make for a great set of tutorials - real 'lessons' of the real thing!

Does this sound cool to anyone else?
