Hi Kieme

To answer your questions:

1) The stock game comes with all subs in black. In reality somewhere in 1942/1943, US subs got the grey color you speak of. In the mod (modification) forum you can find alternative skins for balao and gato that have the new colors.


2) Regarding guns, you can upgrade them as you work your way through the game. The caliber and the amount of guns differed per sub and changed throughout the war. In the game, you can acquire these heavier weapons through 'renown'. You gain 'renown' by performing the special missions (which are optional, not mandatory), torpedoing warships and in general by torpedoing a large tonnage of shipping.

Just as an FYI, you'll have most succes when staying submerged, not by firing your gun. That's only for desperate times.

Have fun!
