But don't let that stop you from trying.

One of my favorite stories is from the SH2-DC online days. One of the SH2 mods let the captain drive the boat like it was a plane. I objected on the grounds that SH2 alread gave the u-boat skippers too much of an advantage, and now they could race to periscope depth, use auto-targeting to throw out a spread of eels and be back at 200 meters before they even hit.

So one game the comm-bar showed a sub player cursing. What had happened was that he put his planes to full rise and started plotting something else. Like a plane the nose kept coming up until it was vertical, and then the game said everything had broken loose inside and he was dead!
