Record
Does anyone remeber what their record tonnage for a single patrol was? Right now, my record is about 30,000. (I know, not very much, but I'm still learning.) So what's everybody elses?

It depends on mods. With stock you can sink many ships with the DG.
Even with TMO, get two 40's and used correctly that could add several more ships, add 6 more with the DG, you can be half way there without using a torp. Regardless, that's not realistic and never happened in war. I've had patrols of over 200,000 tons, but many have playing TMO. I've never broke the 300K ton mark. Once in a blue moon I'll try to reach 300K ton mark, just not yet, but that means shooting only at very large ships and tactics such as one torp per ship and using the DG or 40's to finish. It's possible to sink two Yamoto class BB's and up to two carriers without refit, then use the DG to sink large pass. ships, tankers ect...it's not hard. Mostly today I just attack well escorted TF or convoys, just boring trying to stack a score. |

With the stock version, I've had tonnage totals in excess of 230,000. Now, with RFB/RSRDC, it's a more modest (and probably more realistic) 60k.

Yea, stock SH4 does go a bit crazy with the targets... I once found a Hiryu patroling a harbour, just going back and forth, without turning around to go back.

Does anyone know where I can get TMO? I hear everybody talking about it, and I want to try it. Also, how hard is it to install? I'm not that good with the computer stuff.
