Surfaced attack success, Gunnery!!

If you mount 40mm AA forward, along with the best deck\gun you can get,let the crew, man the deck gun,Auto enabled fire at will,shoot for hull,& you man the fwd.40mm,ahead flank!! what A rush!! at 1000 yds. It uses up your targets hit points faster,& down he goes. Make sure other ships in convoy are not in close range,or they will hole your hull.:p "Damn the torps full speed ahead."

You can't do this in TM + NSM, which is pretty much the default installation for any serious subsimmer

I do belive standing orders are not to get into gun fights unless your sub has a major advantage. i.e. No guns on the enemy

@ Capt.switch.dota

What is NSM?? Now mates,being the advocate for the casual gamer,& I take the arcade occasion as some fun in dieing ,part of the game,because if we didn't have men willing to give there lives,for there country,this game wouldn't be very real.
This is a rewarding/daring,arcade fight:rotfl: FUN!!

@seaniam81,When your out of fish,it might be better to gun one,or two down,& finish up the Convoy.Than let them get away.Run up his stearn guns blazing.Valor,Mate Thxs.,for responces

We now bring you Admiral Lockwood, in progress: Damn, looks like he got some bad coffee this morning...

"Donut! Front and center!.........Son, what is this inane claptrap about FUN? Pshaw! You, sir, are responsible for the safety of 60-odd men out there who look at you as god of your boat. If you say attack, they attack, if you say retreat, they retreat, if you say die, they DIE. Son, that is an awesome responsibility, not FUN.

"We are engaged in a war, captain. A war in which we kill people and break things. A war where we attempt to avoid being killed and our things broken. We cannot win this war with dead crews, especially when they are dead because their commander was having 'FUN.'

"This is an order: I have added one more item to my rules of engagement. You will adhere to this rule or you will skipper that garbage scow you see right outside the window there. *points menacingly. I'd suggest cringing respectfully.*

"No having FUN. I would add dammit, but regulations prohibit that. Clear? Disssssssss-missed!"

Yike, does he have a hemorrhoid acting up or what? "what's that, Sir? What did I say, Sir? Nothing, Sir. Thank you, Sir. I'll be on my way, Sir...."
