sevens or nines

Well I use both. Most of my careers I too play in the second flotilla. I usually start with a VIIB, get a VIIC as soon as it's available, and in early '42 I get a IXc. Because in january, operation Drumbeat / Paukenschlag starts (attacking merchants and convoys off the US east coast).

I like both ships. The type VII dives quicker and is overall more manoeuvreable. It's also harder to spot for enemy sonar.
The IXc takes considerable more time to dive, and is less agile, but it is faster, has longer range and (for me the biggest advantage) it has a lot more torpedoes.

They're both very fine ships. I don't really have a favorite actually.
