Default Theater Poll Request

Now that the cat's pretty much out of the bag, can we get a poll of people who want another U-boat sim or would like to see the developers take another crack at the Pacific theater...or both?

I know U-boats are popular in Europe and since the development is in Europe it's not surprising to see U-boats. But this does not negate the fact that people in the US are also interested in their own legacy.

Also, why is there this tendency to focus on U-boats over Fleet boats? All other venues (armor, aircraft, grunts) tend to have more of a balance regardless of where the development is done. There were more warships involved in the Pacific and large naval engagements where subs played an important role. Both theaters had lots of merchants but the Atlantic thinned down to mostly merchant convoys late in the war. Both sides had air patrols to contend with but only the Pacific had a large number of carriers.

I don't get the attraction of the Atlantic in terms of what the action focused on. Sinking nothing but merchants gets a bit routine after awhile.
