You'll hear glass start to break when you go too deep. And then the hull starts taking hit point damage. If you don't get back up to a safe depth, you're not going to come back up at all.

I don't know what the crush depths are in TM as Ducimus and his work remain enigmas to the common man .

Crush depths will be changing in RFB with the next release. IMO--everyone should find out for themselves how deep they can go (or not) :hmm:. It's the good ol' pucker factor that make these sims fun IMO.

As for the Tang's deep dive: It went to 700 feet. But it's good to keep in mind that that was an exceptional case. We'll never know how many Balaos didn't make it at lesser depths than that...

Cheers!
