Quick dumb question, BOLD launcher
 

Where do you get the launcher installed? I have the BOLD tablets, but not the launcher. How do you install it and/or launch them?:k_confused:
Thanks.

"I found that one possible way to deploy a decoy is to

1. Have one of the officers carry decoys.

2. Activate that officer and assume his role in first person view.

3. Go to the aft torpedo room and right click on the "pill dispenser" above the diesel compressor." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hhDsBUhUOE

Does it depend on the sub? I've never seen the dispenser in the sub, I figure it's an upgrade, but it's not in the upgrades. What am I missing?

There is only one sub - the Type VIIC. If you start the game using of the four boats with early-mid war start dates (U-96, U-552, U-564, U-559) you will need to research Bold Decoys when that option becomes available at HQ. The Bold launcher will then be automatically fitted to your boat (for some odd reason the game doesn't make this clear), and the decoys will become available in the store at your port (and also at other friendly ports and from milk cows).

If you start the game using one of the four boats which have mid-late war campaign starts dates (U-606, U-764, U-984 or U-1055) then the Bold launcher is already installed in your boat from the start (along with some other upgrades) but you still need to buy bold canisters from the port store.

The way I use the launcher:

1. Equip one of my engineer officers with at least one Bold canister, which are in the store room in the galley section:

2. The decoy launcher is located just above the diesel-powered air compressor on the starboard side of the stern torpedo/e-motor compartment. If you press the Alt key, the game will show labels for all the action points available, including the decoy launcher ("Pill thrower"):

3. Select the engineer who's carrying a bold canister, and left click on the decoy launcher action point. He will go there and launch the decoy.

4. You can then also see the decoy's location on the map screen:

I figured it out! Thanks guys. It doesn't show the launcher option, unless you have one on you (in your bag), then it shows you it.

That's not true. If you press the ALT key, it will show you the launcher regardless of whether your currently selected engineer officer has a Bold cannister in his bag or not:
