Let's see, where were we... oh, yeah, I was posting questions!

Next: how many torpedoes would a Gato class sub carry on patrol?

It depends on if I've tampered with the NSS_Gato.sim file or not

I've had one carry as many as 50.

*please disregard as a serious answer*

24 if it was carrying it's full loading, most likely depend on how many the dockyard had in stock at the time. Torps got harder to source the further west the subs were based.

Ok, time for the finale!!

If you have won in this contest, and you have received a SHO winner's code (that's how you can be sure you have won). Make a roll call post in this thread. What I want you to post is your submarine combat motto. You can copy some famous motto (Attack! Attack! Attack! ) or make up your own. It can be serious, with Latin and whatnot, or humorous, or simply simple.

After three days, I will choose a winner. The prize is a choice of one of the following:
  • "The Lord of the Rings: The Motion Picture Trilogy" on Blu-ray



    .
  • Sport Outdoor Military Rucksacks Tactical Molle Backpack Camping Hiking Trekking Bag
    by Eyourlife



    .
  • Bushnell BackTrack Original G2 GPS Personal Locator and Digital Compass

Bear in mind, the DVD prize may be a specific region, I will try to accomodate you if I can. Otherwise, the DVD prize comes as is.

Good hunting!
