my personal thought is that if they make it a Allied game ill never play it...what is the fun in desroying tiny bits of German commerce considering they didnt need much being mainly a land locked war so supplies generated mainly between countrys, and also who wants to try and continuously put fish into the sids of lil u-boats, no fun in that and its kind of unrealistic...sure it happened occasionally but sub on sub warfare was not a pastime for the USN/RN navy. |
U boat interdiction was an important part of allied sub operations and RN submarines sank 12 U boats outside their bases for the loss of 4 sunk by U boats. Thats why U boats needed an escort out of port. U class submarines waged a very succesful war against Axis shipping in the med Lt Cmdr Wanklyn, Skipper of HMS Upholder sank 21 ships in the Med before he was killed. Agreed there aren't the large convoy battles but allied subs in the Atlantic had far from a boring time.
