Thanks everyone!

@TG626: Too bad I haven't played FS2004 for quite some time now. And oh! DOS-era games eh?

@Sailor Steve: That topic recently came into my mind, albeit VII vs IX subs. I've searched through some topics, in and out of this forum, and found that it all depends on the captain in question, much like what type of plane to be utilised for the trip. And yes, I love larger subs.

To all the rest of my fellow captains, thanks again! Looking forward to learn more!

Speaking of learning, here's my "to do" list. Gotta search when I got free time at work...

Firing torpedoes.... manually.
Dealing with trawlers on shallow waters (English Channel). Darn can't go deeper than periscope depth. I'm allergic to depth charges...
Binding commands with Game Commander 2 - well I have manually bound a list of commands, but I'm still in the process of binding "manoevers" (ie. dive-run silent-hard right, aircraft evasion, etc.)

Thanks again fellow captains!

I've read some articles here and out of the forums on commanding a U-Boat. I can say that I've improved in tactics. I can finally evade those pesky depth charges and destroyers with ease now.

Still have a long way to go with manual torpedo calculations, though.
