XVIII is an XXI without the gigantic batteries but with Uber-sprint mode instead

Now, the XXI boats, on the other hand... I've played pretty extensively with both, and I would much rather have a quiet boat with a lot of underwater endurance than a loud, fast boat. Even at 30 knots, most escorts can still outrun you, and at that speed, you're making more than enough noise for them to hear you even at that speed. When playing with the Walter boat, I found myself going deep and creeping along more than I would have liked and wishing it had better underwater performance on batteries. Far as I'm concerned, the turbine is great for intercepting a convoy that you would have otherwise been unable to run down, but not for much else.

The Walther Boat is offered to you in Career U-Boat when you have done enough patrols (4 or 5) in the IXD2. There is a MOD out there that grants you it at any time, but I can not remember which one it is.

i also remember something about the speed value in the peroxide propulsion field being additive not absolute... as i learned to my surprise when i toggled it on while being depth charged to suddenly find myself going 50 knots. http://i41.tinypic.com/2cpq24g.jpg * Modified XVIII for 1.5 by Xantro.rar ?? |
