Hardcore Submarine Skipper!

Do I get a bag of peanuts on a doily-covered plate?

I'm still trying to figure out how the Request Transfer Command works in SHCE!

I got relieved of command once by Comsubpac but when subs are maxxing out at 9kts and the targets 15kts!

Thanks!

Christopher Tarana

The Request A Transfer command allows you to switch from ComSubPac to ComSubsSouWest!

HARDCORE SUBSIM SKIPPER
No doubt about it, you are hardcore. You are the kind of subsim player who pins up the Kriegsmarine gridmap on your wall, you use a redlamp when playing at night, your wife lets you know her mother is visiting by shouting "Alarm!" and you didn't know--or care--that Silent Hunter III has a save game feature. You cut your teeth plotting attacks in Gato, sank 28,000 tons in your first Aces of the Deep patrol, and played Dangerous Waters at 100% realism. You scoff at wannabes who whine about some niggling detail in a subsim but use the red triangle-infested auto TDC and auto-map updates. You never, ever, use anything but full realism.
You are the "sim" in Subsim.

Funny

NUKE SUBSIM SKIPPER

Yeah that is pretty spot on. Getting back into Silent Hunter has definitely been tough getting use to a lot of barebones optics and gut checks on where to fire torpedoes.

CASUAL SUBSIM SKIPPER
You fell in love with Aces of the Deep. Your playing style is relaxed, more for fun than historical accuracy. You always play Sub Command or Dangerous Waters from the NavMap (rightclick is your friend), if you ever ventured to play them at all. Probably you prefer WWII subsims like Silent Hunter 3, SH4 and Aces. You may try the manual TDC, but you prefer to leave the auto map contacts on, (blank maps scare you). Even though you know submarine skippers missed targets occasionally in real life, you cannot resist reloading a mission to take another shot at a 10,000-tonne troopship that got away. One ship, one torpedo, finished off with the deck gun--that's the creed you live by. Hold your head high--there's no shame in having fun.

UPDATE: This is pretty accurate, I guess the last test I did was inaccurate.
I do reload the game if I miss a shot or something. If I miss an important target, I chase them at high speed or reload the game.
