Ahoh Type XXI Kaleun

Finally after 5 years of war Bdu has rewarded me with command of U3523, a Type XXI at last.

Though the submerged speed and Torp reload times are phenonminal...

What with the depthkeeping?

This boats a nightmare at periscope depth. Even with a calm sea, no matter what the Chief tries the damn thing either broaches or the periscopes under the surface. Almost my entire crew have been with me since the start of hostilities and I find it hard to believe they've lost their seamanship skills overnight!

Anyone else having/had this problem?

I'm currently trying to take down a taskforce between the Shetlands and Farroes but its proving a nightmare. Illustrious, 2 Dido class cruisers + escorts. I've really got to take them down or else Bdu will send me back to a comanding a dugout.
