Blame the cheaters, but don't think so two dimensionally about fuel. You can travel to your patrol area at ahead standard, and then while there, drop it down to 2/3rds. I tested that myself, it works. You just have to do a few more mental calculations is all. I LOVE cruising at ahead standard and faster then 10 knots. Don't think id give that up so easily.

The problem is the "Min/max'er syndrome" . "OMG 2/3rds is the most efficient, so NOTHING else is viable!!!one111" That simply isn't so. Do you think a real submarine captain would travel at the same speed the entire length of a patrol? Mix it up, you'll be pleasantly surprised if you think about your fuel, and plan ahead.

As for torpedo tubes, no i haven't touched them.
