I have been playing online alot lately, and my mate always use the IXD2 (although I told him he was a tonnage-tosser), so I started using it sometimes because he was getting all the tonnage before I could reload.

I dont like it, its too easy to mess up late war convoys when two(or more) boats are pumped full of Falke`s. And - as Ducimus says - its so big! I actually think an oil rig could dive faster!

Next time I`m gonna insist on using VII`s with only one rear Falke.

I like the IX-class, dont get me wrong, but when the kitchen gets hot nothing beats the Formula 1-agility of the VII!

PS: I must admit I grinned when we attacked a Task Force last night. He killed off a few DD`s and a Carrier with his 5000 Falke`s, and subsequently got blown to bits while trying to crash dive at 1mph. I got away in My VIIC with approx the same tonnage after a while, but alive.
