Kinda new here.

Anyhoo...I'm in the middle of my 9th patrol. Started with a VIIC in March of 41' and I am now in January 42'. Had a few close calls. Was able to shake off a few destroyers in my 8th patrol and got some heavy damage shooting it out with a large merchant in the beginning of the 9th patrol.

I have my realism set at 52%. I am not using map contacts. Strictly using reports and hydrophone contacts. Practicing my skills on using that procedure. Been practicing manual targeting in the Academy...I still need work.

Now that my patrols are in 1942, I expect things to get a little rougher now that the US is in the fray. We'll see.
