Default What's my boat?

Ok it's idiot time. I've been on several missions, with some success. Cruising the internet, checking out German subs. Feeling good. Yeah, boss of a type IX. But which type? I think it's a IXA, but how do I know? Subsystems screen tells me I'm a IX, but then? Don't know that it matters, but still I like to brag. Is there a way to find out?

you're from Groton and you're driving a Uboat? For shame!
the ghosts of EB will be haunting you!

seriously, if you are playing DW and driving a Type IX, then it is a IXA.

Default Now I know

Thanks for the replies. Yes, I'm in Groton. But the only way to know if EB's subs are better than bowling pin setters is to go up against them!
