For your review and impute

[Laufen zum Ziel]

This thread has not been approved by Bdu staff. We would like to do a restart of Subsim Enigma Flotilla to attract more SHIII players. We would appreciate your comments and ideas.


Some thoughts for your review.

Patrols should run for three months. At the end of the patrol period an award will be issued to the Sub Commander who has the highest tons sunk for the patrol period.

There will be four awards for the year.

I think we should keep the flotilla as simple as possible but still maintain some historical aspects.

Command structure..........

Enigma commander (Bdu - computum)
Chief of Staff
Chief of Operations (Laufen)
Chief of Research & development

Let's consider deleating all stickies on our forum and only have three threads - From Bdu/To Bdu/Open thread.

The to Bdu and from Bdu threads should be in German using the Google translator. The open thread must be in english.

The Chief of Operations will use Canovaro's OS convoy contact map to assign U-Boots to hot hunting grids.

All operational messages will be sent and received through the Enigma machine. The Enigma machine we are now using may have too high of a learning curve for some players. I recommend that we use a simple java based enigma simulator that works with any browser and can be used with Windows, Mac & iPad. I have one in mind.

All position reports should utilize the Krigsmarine grid system (AB4022).

This memo is not a change in computun's procedure and is intended to generate ideas only.
