DC loadouts, accurate?

Adlerkopf · 03-20-06, 11:20 AM

All,

So, last night I go on patrol. It's my first trans-atlantic hop (based at Lorient, had to patrol CA73, the US coast). Anyway, after a long game I'm back just sound of Ireland when I come across a flower corvette. Long story short, I end up in a cat and mouse game with him and he's DC'ing like mad. I came through the whole thing without taking any damage, but it made me start to wonder. A the DC loadouts for the allied ships accurately modelled in the game? I ask because I wanted to count the DC's figuring I'd know when I could gun it out of there without any worries, but I wasn't sure it the loadouts are moddled? Anyone know?

Danke Kameraden

From what I've read here the loadouts seem to be as the DDs will continue racing around doing their attack runs even after they've run out of ammo.

I`m not QUITE sure, but AFAIK there`s simple count in this matter: every DC thrower/rack has ammo of 40 DCs.
