Sorting the Sheep from the Greywolves

[Mush Martin]

Well I endorse the simultaneous first strike method for sure.

No warning
too late
no detection

good pass.

Sink 'em all. I just try not to do anything too stupid.

It is really situational with me. Mostly I avoid the escorts as much as possible, but when there is an opportunity too good to resist I'll give them a red hot go.

Where you been in the pub? :rotfl:

[Mush Martin]

That would be a big headache

been reading and researching about
eight or so subjects I just seem to have
A-D-D at times

[Brer Rabbit]

Slow and quiet, in order to fight another day. To paraphrase an old military addage: There are Old Kapitans and there are Bold Kapitans, but there are on Old Bold Kapitans.

[Mush Martin]

The Reasoned argument

less consumed air
better situational awareness
escort weapons a danger to themselves
although reduced shooting times targets are larger
Eliminated escorts are permanent evaded escorts arent.
although the turning fight consumes your power faster
its over faster and the pickens can come after a recharge
or if equipped you can use schnorkel in game at least
to make sudden high speed maneuvers in evasion or positioning.
this often solicits perimiter escorts to fire inadvertantly on the
escorts in close proximity to you causing a protracted friendly fire
issue between the escorts. and removing you from there attention
also its somewhat more stimulating than sitting on bottom for hours.

If it's a lone warship then I'll see about taking a shot, however if it's a group of the sods, then I steer WELL clear, at the moment anyway, primarily because I'm usually in shallow water when I come across them.

With an Uber boot like yours (in the picture) I would happily stay on the surface, but with my standard IXB I rather dive deep and go silent just to fight another day as it was pointed out by Mr. Brer Rabbit


hmm I just realized that it's been well over 3 months of my last visit here at the Subsim. Clad to see some familiar "faces" still around

[Mush Martin]

In this case I did mean Standard subs I still stay up even in a typeII
for the above stated advantages of the position.

[edit] especially in a type II as I need the
enemies D/C's as I dont have enough
torpedos without cheating on the reloads.

its a bit belated but "this is me we're talking about"

It depends what the escorts are escorting. If it's a few small ships, I'll ignore it and slip away. If the target's big enough, go in with tubes blazing and send the lot to the bottom.
