I love to shoot from decks awash. It makes you less visible, makes you a smaller target, reduces dive time to almost nothing and gives you all visual, periscope and radar abilities. All you give up is 10 knots of speed. You're close to the enemy so you don't need that.  |
But I believe that tactic is very demanding in fuel.At least that was true in SH3/GWX.
Also you can't use your deck guns(bad news for my Narwhal).
The TMO\RSRDC(maybe vanilla SH4? ) has a special skill that enables the boat to dive faster(its a green propeller in a persons card).Hit the c and the boat goes unter in less than 40s.
Personaly I never had a problem,the radar does a great job to prevent any nasty suprises.
