[REL] ASuW TMA Practice (1 star)

[p7p8]

I think tactic point/lead/lag is not crucial in DW battles because concerns target which is:

1) alone,
2) moving straight,
3) with constant speed
4) in open waters

So if you think it is crucial to changes course only +70/-50/0 (for target going from left to right) please give me good reasons for that.
In my opinion much better is changing course minimum +/-30 depending on the tactical situation.

Second problem is identification. In many MP and SP missions civilian traffic is high. So which 50 or 60 Hz narrowband contact is your main target?

Since RA 1.40 acoustic signatures was changed:

Frequency String 1 – Generator Type
50 or 60 Hz for units
55 Hz and 65 Hz for torpedoes.

Frequency String 2 – Tonnage Factor
100 Hz – 41000 Tonns and more
...
280 Hz – 500 – 999 Tonns

Frequency String 3 – Engine Type - first string good for identification!

Frequency String 4 and 5 – Unique frequency for each class

It means, good identification for military weasels is possible from short ranges.

Like I said before, tactics point/leg/lead are almost useless in real battle because was created for idealized situation.

BTW did You read chapter "VI. CONCLUSIONS" from this analysis?

an important part of teaching and learning is trying to start with just one concept at a time

I agree... but not in DW beacause most players are shocked when meets many contacts especially from TA. So teaching new players on too idealized situation is in my opinion not good.
I personally don't want play missions where alone main target is going straight with constant speed with tactic "transit" because this is boring.
