Hi Mogami

[QUOTE=Mogami]I have seen many "I-16 sinks" reports and then next turn found the sub still alive. (sometimes damaged other times perfectly fine)[/QUOTE]

This hasn't been my experience but I will take your word for it. Whenever I get a sub sunk message for either side it has invariably been followed by the death rattle sound effect and at least with my subs has been an absolute indicator of death!

[QUOTE=Mogami]I've had my share of subs survive DC attack only to sink on way home. [/QUOTE]

This has been my experience too, as well as making it to a safe harbor and surviving.

[QUOTE=Mogami]I think the USN ASW is ok but was the Japanese ASW really so awful? The USN subs can move right through Japanese ASW and it is very rare to hit or sink them. (I'm happy when I can stop them from attacking)[/QUOTE]

I think most of us can live with the situation as we have learned how to deal with it I just wish it were implemented a bit better.

[QUOTE=Mogami]I'm still trying to get a sub to hit a mine in WITP. I've been able to hit both Allied and Japanese submarines with DC. [/QUOTE]

Agreed, I have no idea why subs are relatively immune to mine fields in UV especially in shallow water/port hexes, hope it is better in WitP.
