Gameplay or Realism? Which do you prefer?

Just out of curiosity, is anyone planning on mods that enhance gameplay, not realism? I know the handful of us that actually view this as a game are few in number, but it sure would be a welcome addition.

I've applied lots of custom changes but there is a limit to what I can do unfortunately, I have a problem with numbers so my ability to mod is severely limited. Otherwise I'd make my own FuB (Fun U-Boat) mod.

Wrap up all of Fubar's nice sub skins, toss in that shell damage texture, a few other things. Hmm. That sort of thing. Stuff that isn't necessarily realistic but would be fun, nonetheless. "What if" scenarios I guess. I've always found it to be more engaging to play an alternate timeline then simply relive existing events. For example, what if the XXI along with the rest of the advanced U-boats had been more of a priority and did in fact come in to service at a point in the war when they would have made a difference? Would England have fallen? Or would the suprerior numbers of the combined forces of the Allies achieved victory anyway?

Anyway, just my thoughts.
