Hah, thanks Chazly!

TMA does seem to require some kind of intuition. I wish there was a way to get a little more info from the actual TMA plot, like zoom factor (2x, 4x, 8x, etc), maybe a little scale bar to show what 10kyd would look like at that scale, or the ability to lay the TMA plot over the tactical map. I doubt any of that would help me, but it would be cool.


On a side note, sunk my first submerged (and correctly ID'd) target over Thanksgiving


Polak - yeah I thought I had done that correctly but I guess not. May try again soon. Thanks for clarification.


Thanks for the responses everybody!
