I like all boats but the type II and XXI, so i guess that sort of narrows it down. Why is the type9 such a favorite? I've never been able to figure it out. I think its how the game ends up being played out. A career game in a type9 just feels different. You seem to have more clearly defined objectives or milestones to gauge your progress or success.

I have to modify my statement, I love all boats except the XXI. Forgot about the hippo.

The only thing I like about the XXI are it's hydrophioned and 50m torpedo release.
Hitting 6 ships in a task force without useing homeing torps and with out going above 40m gives me a buzz

A couple Pictures of U-154's conning tower

EDIT: Changing this bit:
Lastly, maybe this picture is workable to extract the emblem if someone else wants to use it for their own boat.. I'm gonna drop the notion of U-64 and go with U-I dont know anymore instead.
