gpcgarag -> ASW ? (11/2/2021 7:05:15 PM)
Can some of the more expirenced Players please give me some Advice? -DDs and ASW Tech is somewhat clear (ASW Tec Lvl and U-Boat Tec Lvl should be on pair? ) -Escord Carriers is also somewhat clear -Marine Bombers is also somewhat clear -Torpedo Boats ????? need answers on them please -Why even if going step by step with DDs they are suprise attacked when you go near a U-boot? Thanks in advance

Torpedo Boats are modeled strangely in the vanilla scenarios. They have a higher Sub Attack than fleet destroyers do, but a lower Sub Defense. Too slow to send out into the convoy lanes to try to find and sink subs. [If they are intended to model German S-boats and US PT-boats, well, those were most definitely NOT optimized for ASW warfare outside of a few maverick USN lt.'s who bolted depth charge racks onto the back of the things.]

Step by step? Spotting doesn’t work like that On the first move, every unit uses it spotting Steps after that do not Both subs and destroyers are more effective when units run into them It’s a waiting game….

But torpedo boats have one very useful skill. They can make powerful attacks against subs and ships in port. So if a lightly damaged sub / ship retreats to port (Norway, France, Italy, NA) you can attack it with an MTB and do a lot of damage. Destroyers and cruisers can't do that. Many of the key ports are within MTB range in Europe. Not sure they have a big role to play in the Pacific because of the distances.

Thanks in advance When you are using your DD's (or any other vessel)..move a bit..then Deselect..look..Select..move..Deselect..rinse and repeat. This maybe what you are referring to 'step by step?'. This works when looking for surfaced U-boats at least and avoids ambushes. Its a bit of a 'twitch' skill. [:D]
