The one I just concluded (by death) was in December 1941 off Honshu I dispatched a European Liner and one DD (with a lucky shot after he passed me by in a rush). The other DD was a true bird dog. Silent running, depth changes to 440 feet in a Tambor, speed at 1 knot, and this guy was all over me. If I raced at flank speed with my tail to his tail and changed course he unerringly attacked me on his next pass. I had the career difficulty set at "realistic" for the first one, and "normal" for this last one. If that is normal I'm just going to request a desk job someplace! By the way, are there any Mods yet specifically for the Ultimate FOTARS, or should we be experimenting with whatever? I think the environment is beautiful. The only anomaly I've seen is that at the highest resolution of 1920x1080, the stopwatch is almost off the screen, but I was able to grab it and move it to a more visible location. Is that a resolution issue or something in my rig? Anyway, great job, guys! Thanks.

Yes, we have a bit of tweaking to do. There is a wide variety of enemy crew proficiencies, but if you run into a good one you can just die. Just need to let everyone know that we are working on that after we get all the campaign issues worked out.
