But you can be sure that as soon as I get the message "Ship in sight, long range" they've seen me too. Does that mean I have to constantly sail at periscope depth? Search the entire area with a diameter of 70 kilometers?
Interesting question! 
Or is this the difference between reality and playing a game? 
How do you handle this? |
As for that make sure they don't detect you... when you think on it.. an uninformed target, is an easier one to take down or out, moreso in a war footing setting... it's easier to take out, if they are not aware of your presence until it's too late. That applies to when your target is on an even footing with your own... on non combatants.. not so much, as I see it... but... if you can hinder their ability to rebuild/resupply/recover... then that's where things tend to get dicey... you know you need to interdict their ability to fight to gain the upper hand in battle. All the best you can do, is to try & achieve that goal, without it being the cost of your humanity in the process.
The difference in this being a game/sim... is that at the end of it or the day, as the case may be... you're still about to redo it all over again... where for them, once things ended.. well.. not a lot made it back home.. on any side of it all.
