Default What a Rush!!

I have to say that this is THE MOST awesome game I've ever played. Other computer games usually lead you down some kind of laid down path that you must follow, leaving nothing to chance.
Does anyone else's heart pound as hard as mine when I decide to stalk a target.
Sure, there is a lot of searching and plotting which is fun but a lot of empty ocean, THEN, BOOM. "Contact, Warship (or Merchant) Closing medium".
I close on a convoy from ahead and keep raising the periscope for no more than 20 secs at a time. I close to 2000yds, 1020yrds for the DD protecting the front and fire six torpedoes, "Hard to port, flank speed, dive to 200ft". Miss the merchants but hit the DD and it sinks like a rock. I lose the rest of the DD's. Disappointed, I later run into two unguarded merchants headed north and close, "Fire one, fire two, fire three, fire four..." My Heart is POUNDING!! I hit both with all four. The secondary explosions are magnificent! Elated, I head west...
This is the best game I've ever played!!
