Nuke skipper. Periscopes are history, but ships are still targets, electronic sonar and TMA for the win.

CASUAL SUBSIM SKIPPER

You fell in love with Aces of the Deep. Your playing style is relaxed, more for fun than historical accuracy. You always play Sub Command or Dangerous Waters from the NavMap (rightclick is your friend), if you ever ventured to play them at all. Probably you prefer WWII subsims like Silent Hunter 3, SH4 and Aces. You may try the manual TDC, but you prefer to leave the auto map contacts on, (blank maps scare you). Even though you know submarine skippers missed targets occasionally in real life, you cannot resist reloading a mission to take another shot at a 10,000-tonne troopship that got away. One ship, one torpedo, finished off with the deck gun--that's the creed you live by. Hold your head high--there's no shame in having fun.

I haven't played in years, but what can I say, I am a legend and by far the best SH4 player to ever man a boat. Guess sort of like Elvis, a league of my own. I sunk more tonnage than any other 5 players combined. My best patrol with no refits playing a 100% difficulty was 278K tons sunk. I was going for 300K, but sunk too many smaller ships in a storm I couldn't see firing. I should be like in the Subsim Hall of Fame.

BILGE RATS! ...its founder, beloved Wolferz, having absconded with the crew's wages and Hamms beer; and not even responding to his birthday thread?

I was a Type VIIB skipper for ever and ever until the day of Ragnarok..

..but then I discovered ADCAPs and TASMs.

These days it's a very bad time on my PC for any commie in a boat. I turn them all into submarines, temporarily anyway.

Also, Killerfish are rad. ☢️👍🏻👍🏻
