Putting US submarines into campaign..those with the modding skills, please read.

Been reading Admiral Eugene Fluckey's "Thunder Below" again and reminds me of how SH 4 lacks wolfpacks in later war.

Just wondering if it would be possible to make a pseudo wolfpack, evne if just for visual apperances.Put some AI fleetboats roaming the Pacific and in later war some along convoy routes.Would add a new dimension to the game, contact a submarine? Better ID before you fire, may not be Japanese.

Would be great if the subs could DIVE upon contacting the enemy and maybe if enemy escorts would attack them? freeing up player to attack from other side as in RL.Also, playing on the captain's abilities from the U boat missions to summon cruisers etc, would be cool if player could send contact report and summon other submarines upon finding convoys.

I in no way have the technical skills to do this but suggesting this, would really add to the game, esp mods like RSRD.

Early war, run into friendly subs on occasion, heading to and returning from patrol areas, later war wolfpacks(pseduo ones anyway since doubt can be made to engage)

Just an idea, would be great to see it implemented into campaign.
