What kind of subsim skipper are you?

I'm usually to be found molesting US aid convoys off the west coast of Ireland in a type VIIB..


.. Though these days I'm often hunting the supply routes between the US, UK and Norway in a sierra or akula.



I tried to like the American WWII fleetboats, and their more modern SSNs, but I just couldn't. They smelled like cotton candy, McDonalds and warm apple pie, when they should have smelled of cabbage and body odour and chain smoking like a good Soviet boat. Yuck.



So I prefer to shell and missile-strike ports and airbases for that relaxed yet stoically suicidal (Germans) / patriotically dour (Soviets) buzz, while occasionally murdering task force's with extreme aggression.

As soon as the flaccid weak capitalists blink and turn to run, they get an oversized Soviet wake -homer up their collective asses.



It's funny that in a U-boat I tried my best not to kick the nest and have the enemy scatter... But in a Soviet glowboat the more naked aggression and nest-kicking there is the better - once the filthy democracyphiles break and scatter, or go defensive, they're screwed. Clever Russkies mitigate their noisy and half-deaf subs with aggression, sprints and manly overuse of powerful Soviet active sonar.



Also, ambushing an enemy diesel-electric sub with rocket-delivered torpedoes never gets old..!


A big thank you to Silent Hunter 4 w/ Op Monsun, and Cold Waters with dotmod, for giving me many enjoyable hours bullying, abusing and creatively murdering Allied shipping and infrastructure.. and for making content that my tired old Linux laptop will run quite happily.



Thanks!!
