Love the game but...

Post by Hairog »

Just a few suggestions.

1. Subs should not be allowed to attack subs. It never happened in real life despite what the movies say.
2. Surface ships and subs should not be allowed in the same fleet.
3. Battle ships should not be allowed to attack subs.
4. Anyway to see where and what units are being attacked by air during the opponents turn?
5. The location of land battles is often covered by result boxes. Anyway to prevent this?

I do love this game and just want to see it get better.

Thanks for your tips. Some of your points already are on the list, the rest is noted and probably will be added in the future.
btw IIRC a Norwegian sub sank a German submarine, the British T-class sank some subs also the Gato class sank some subs.

Why should BB not be able to attack subs? The manual clearly says that the BB represents one battleship and 5 destroyers. The BB itself does not have to drop the depth charges.

try again mate, sub attacked subs during the war, sank a few too
2. Surface ships and subs should not be allowed in the same fleet.
that was and is standard tactics
3. Battle ships should not be allowed to attack subs.
as the other guy already posted
4. Anyway to see where and what units are being attacked by air during the opponents turn?

"try again mate, sub attacked subs during the war, sank a few too"

Well maybe my information was not correct. Is it correct to say that out of the hundreds of subs only a handful were even attacked by other subs and less than say 5 were actually damaged? I know that is wasn't very common and certainly not routine as it is in the game.

"that was and is standard tactics"

Ah I see the nuance... I should have said task force instead of fleet. Is there a difference in this game?

I was not aware that a battle ship represented destroyers also. Please excuse my ignorance. Now I know.
