Ditto. Ive TRIED Playing early war. I get bored, FAST. Yeah sure ive been depth charged before 42, but, damn they sucked. Not even close. Early war active sonar is laughable at best. Your under their sonar cone at about 200 meters. Nothing left to do but creep along at 100 RPM's or less, and wait tell they give up and go away. That, and Ive gotten away with bloody murder in night surface attacks.
The closest ive gotten to being sunk was by an aircraft out of freetown (current patro in 6/41l acutally) that appeared 4800 meters to port. Too late to dive.. Went to flank speed, then gave a full port rudder as he was about 2000 meters off. His bombs overshot me like i figured they would, straighted the rudder, crash dived, end of story.
Now.. 43-44... now were talking FUN!
