I used the USN_Kill_Flag_Kit to setup my conning tower. Dang if I can remember where I downloaded it tho... (PSD format). The end results are below:

Wow Akula...that looks fantastic. I'll google for the kit.

Thanx, I think this is it: http://battleflags.net/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=1301 .

I really like the look of your tower...thanx for showing it to me. And at the above site I saw how some guys just keep applying kills, one tower was just covered. Maybe I'll do something like that too.

I play American campaigns. Using TMO 1.7 and RSRD.

Is it possible for me to make my way to European waters to hunt for German targets? Or would I make the voyage for nothing?

I thought it would be great to get a German destroyer or merchant so i could add a Kriegsmarine kill flag to my tower.

Thanx.

runningdeer - you need to get the PSD file for Adobe Photoshop (if you have it) - it makes it so much easier. If you cannot find it I could email it to ya... plus I have a template for positioning of the insignia too.

Just PM me your email addy if you want it.

You can always get the Barbs kill flag mod for your sub at some point eariler in the war before Fluckey was in command she sank a German tanker I belive at any rate the Barb did sink a german merchant and had a Nazi flag. I am sure a few other subs also sank some German ships but very few US Navy subs did youd have to have a Brit sub they got many more.What would be nice is if you could have the small kill flags for each seprate ship that where flown from the sheers when coming into home port those often had the ensign of meatball with a ship siloute on the other side.Seeing as the subs obviously would not have had a kill flag painted on the ship when in actual use unless at the end of the war. The killflag mod is nice and all I just dont want that huge thing on my tower personaly, also I find the rate that one can sink ships in SH4 to be too easy when compared to real life. You can pull off what the very best subs did in thier entire service in just a few patrols.That being said I do like runningdeers idea to make his own kill flag lets you make your own personal touch if you want something done the way you like may as well do it yourself.On a side note since we are talking about kills has anyone else noticed with TMO 1.7 that sometimes when you get the raido messages from other subs kills or statius that the sub you are in will show up? That is always funny to me when I will still be heading my patrol zone and suddenly I get a message that we sank x ships returing to base! Once I even got a raido message that my sub was missing and presumed lost. I guess the game dose not remove those messages when they relate to the same name sub.
