Welcome aboard!

Your range situation can also be helped by paying a vist to an forward American base and top your tanks up on the way out and on the way back.

Don't be afraid of asking questions, there are plenty here who will gide you in the right direction.

I have a feeling that when you experience the effect of Ducimus' much more realistic AA gun effectiveness you'll realize that shooting at warships and airplanes makes as much sense as opening the screen door at periscope depth to let the water out. TMO changes EVERYTHING about gameplay, making stock player behavior look quite foolish. I think that is what Ducimus had in mind. Personally, I like it a lot.

I never understand why some subbers opt for running submerged in daylight. I uses up energy unnecssarily. I could understand diving due to aircraft or enemy shipping. Boy, Bilge Rats- You gotta love 'em.

In SH1 I always did just that - until I got radar.

Yes, I demoted Sailor Steve to Bilge Cleaner Assistant for insubordination. That'll show him who's boss on this boat. Oh, and don't let him make coffee for you either. Rumour has it he collected Bilge waste in an enamel cup.

Steve did you send the stuff in the mail?
