As for RFB 2.0 I am really enjoying it, but I am finding range and endurance an issue. I would always have endurance for minimum 60 days at sea, usually quite a bit longer, but in RFB i can just make 5 weeks out of SubPac. It's fine out of Brisbane or Fremantle, but from SubPac bases it isn't enough as I'm burning 35% enroute to say the South China Sea, and 35% back, leaving only 30% for patrol.
IRL the fleet boats would stop for a refuel at midway if they were heading for the home islands.
