You really should do a tour in an old S-Boat WernherVonTrapp I think you will like it.Nothing like going into action in an old Pig Boat you'll really feel satisfied when you sink some tonnage in one it is a real blast.Well for you anyway not so much for the other guy.

New boat availability is found in the flotilla.upc file. If you start at Freemantle command and you want to remain there do not elect to take one until the Gatos become available. All transfers until then will transfer you to Pearl. Since I don't like the missions from Pearl, I always turn down any new boats before 1942 ends. Taking on the Luzon invasion fleet, evading the many escorts, sinking a few troop ships and getting away is too much fun to miss.

Gato class availability
Pearl Harbor 3-1-1942
Freemantle 12-1-1942

Oh, its a blast for him too!

I agree, though, the S-Class is really very fun

It makes the subsequent upgrades very much sweeter and more appreciated!! I'm on career right now where I upgraded from Sboat to Salmon class (I'm based in Brisbane) and it is really nice to have all those torpedoes now! I very much look forward to surface radar in the future, but for now this Salmon class is refreshing after being in the S-boat for 3 war patrols.

I often like to run an S-Boat out of Brisbane in 42 you can use the SJ then and you also are in a very busy AO as well.Though for me for some reason when I play an S-Boat out of Brisbane the weather is foul so I get most kills with the deck gun though fog by getting his bearing and getting as close as I dare taking blind shots at where I think he is until I hear a shell hit while praying that he does take a pop shot at where he thinks I am.
