688 and subcommand are a piece of cake to play over these sims having to do with world war 2.

Manual targeting, limited fuel and batteries and early on there was no surface radar and not even air search for some. There is no diving to 2000 feet here nor flank blowing ballast and doing 60 knots on the way up.

There is a surface ship dropping bombs on you moving at 33 knots when the best you can do is 2 knots if you want to be quiet.

... and those wire guided fish they reach out and touch thing at 20 miles are now duds that blow up in your face 20 seconds after they have left the boat. GUESS WHO KNOW WHERE YOU ARE NOW????

Turn everything to manual add some really good mods from Traveller, Webster and things like TMO, RFB and Operation Monsun and find new ways to sweat out with your engine flooded headed for the bottom to only hope you can get it repaired before the sonar gurus hear your screaming crew and drop deeper depth charges on you thanks to a certain congressman telling them they they were attack us to shallow.

Although on the bright side I never heard a WW2 boat captain running his crew into an undersea moutain.
