Balao and difficulty
Hello all! Long time since I have been here or on Silent Hunter, but I decided to get back into it for a bit.
I am in late 1942 and just received a new Balao class submarine. I have used it before, so I am quite familiar with its capabilities.
I also have never used a submarine other than the Balao class past 1943.
I just had a Tambor and really enjoyed the difficulty brought by a limited dive capability. I fear the Balao will make the game far too easy. Running TMO btw.
I recall being able to drop to 600 feet and always getting away with minimal damage. That gets boring after a while.
So what do you all think? Does the diving capabilities of the Balao make the game too easy? Or is deeper diving needed later in the war?
I saved right before docking so I can easily go back and take a refit instead, or try for a Gato.
