Thanks for the update but TMO sounds 'unrealistic' to me. Whilst the IJN had a well trained navy, they overestimated their worth. Complacency and belief in the sub humans of the USA proved their undoing. Yamamoto predicted 6 months of glory then the fight back would begin rolling, it proved correct.

I have SH4 (patched) on 'normal' setting, I have tried others but I deemed them a bit OTT. Normal is hard enough because if an IJN vessel spots you, all hell breaks loose and I have to break contact and dive to 300+ - quickly. The rougher the sea, the least effective is sonar, they cannot see me so I try to go under them and come back up to get a shot off.

I wanted a mod to make it historically more accurate and to reflect the efficiency of the sub men and the IJN. Last night, on my laptop, I was in the correct position to encounter the 4 carriers attacking Midway, historically, they never showed. But have encountered them there in the past. According to history, I was in the exact right place to 'have a go'.
