Default night and day

after playing in my career under command of a type VIIB in 1939-1940, i had a sudden urge to start a new career commanding a type XXI, which isnt available until 1944

holy cow....its like night and day, thank heavens i have the ability to stay under but its so tempting to surface to recharge the batteries....
and theres the ASW....
but it helped me realise that the type XXI is a very desirable boat...
first patrol, however, i sank a bogue CVE in a task force with a southampton cruiser, as well as a couple less notable freighters, and two unescorted fast tankers....
totaling 39,400 some tons...
and i made it home without taking any notable damage!

anyone else have this kinda fun?
