Not sure how we come to be talking 'Salvos' in a LwAmi mod thread. :hmm: Some folk around here are on their
favourite soapbox. LuftWolf you asked ''Should I make the UUV better or worse ? ''
May I suggest that you run a poll on UUV development ?

My feeling is that the LwAmi sub v sub environment often demands slow stealthy progress, which can turn
rapidly into a knife fight. The 'Salvo' propagandists will lead us down a slippery slope of 'Doom' overkill.
However real, and the arguments continue, this will be the unintended outcome in many free for all
and team sub v sub dives.

Better to cope with the relative short sightedness by compensating with enhanced standoff probes.
UUVs will then redress the balance in SSN matches. Do we really want to take part in dump and run fests ?

We know that its real F18 procedure for a flight/s to stand-off incoming enemy formations by launching
all their air to air s.a. missiles from high altitude then do a 180 and dive shallow beneath enemies radar.
But it sure made for a dull game ! Ditto DW.!!
