AS,

I don't know too many sub games that give you any more depth than the red line on the depth guage. Anything over that and you're toast. And soggy at that. For instance the late war US subs that could go to 400 ft safely, but in the games I've played, you go 1 foot deeper, and the hull crushes every time. I understand your point too. The boats were known to go well beyond the limit that the dock certificate stated, and there is yet to be a game, or simulator that reflects that very point unless some enterprising soul comes up with a mod for it.

It makes me wonder also how the game will deal with this aspect.

Very good point there AS.
