Sorry. I was mainly responding to something you didn't say. We've had threads in the past from people wanting mods that let them run low on food, and the fact is that it just didn't seem to happen that way, which is why I posted as I did.

haha - what was meant to be a joke has a serious side. In books I have read there were cases of U-Boats sending boarding parties unto local fisherman's boats at gunpoint. There was one case where one U-boat traded food with anothe U-Boat for 2 torpedoes to stay at sea. I am sure a few merchant ships had floating cargo that had foodstuffs ransacked. Not all boats operated close to a milch cow or a friendly port. Of course being German, they had plenty of cured meat and salt fish (ugh). But still, I am sure provisions could not have been plentiful on an extra long patrol that was not preplanned for. So what I am suggesting is for immersion sake we only eat one bag of potato chips while playing - no submarine sandwiches, no whole apple pies. Ration!

Then you'll simply have to 'bear' with us.

There's more than one way to skin a...oh, never mind.

Next career, I take only one and a half weeks of food, as incentive to sink more ships. My crew will only survive if they disable and capture enemy vessels and eat that ship's food.... or crew. Only then will they sink the ship.

Sorry, guess it's close to Halloween and all.

Oh, not at all! I guess I missed that altogether. On the other hand, the "bad taste" might not be in bad taste, but it certainly made me spit out my soda...

IXD2s brought me some long ones. I believe my personal record was 190 days (spent in large part in the Indian Ocean).

If you use a IXD2 to circumnavigate the globe (while you pass through some nice target areas, it's not a very efficient patrol) I did it in around 180 or so days. Boy was everyone glad to get off that boat the moment we docked and shower, and get some real food and beer.
