  • Requesting US SS Guide

I've never saw one so might as well give it a try. US is a "balanced nation" but for some
reason, people seems to underestimate and belittle the SS line. Majority says it's the
worst SS around coz of not so great torp damage, splash radius, speed and easy to destroy.
Since I'm going to try the US SS line for the first time but provided with the right level
of support crew, I would like to ask a decent guide for it. The strengths and weaknesses,
tactics, advantages and disadvantages, etc. I'm not really trying to prove anything here,
just wanna have fun with it since it is considered as the little guy of the game which
means it will bring more hype and challenge, which also means more fun! =D

Anyway, I have high hopes for a decent US SS guide. Thanks in advance! =)

I have edited the guide to include the suggestions posted there. Any more
questions about the US subs, please read it first. Then ask. This thread will now lock
down in 10 mikes.

Thanks lant for the guide! It still lacks information in my opinion. Please read my reply
in your US SS guide. Thanks! =)

I don't know who to believe anymore about the reload thingy! lol anyway, It is all cool
coz I will boost my torpmen in the future so it will not matter whether it has 11 or 12
torp skill. Oh and I just made an 11torp/11rel torpmen just incase they change it and make
the reload stat applicable to torps in the future! Better safe than sorry I say.. ;-)

btw deadguy69 the reload skill does not apply to how fast torpedos reload.

Well, the IJN had a guide made so why not. There goes my daily prize but oh well. I
may as well make one.

*edit
I made a guide, do check if I'm missing stuff.

I think there's no need for me to start from scratch coz I've been playing my bro's US SS1
for a month since he got discouraged of it when I told him that it's the weakest SS around
in a jokingly manner! lol xP

Anyway, its either I continue playing his account coz I gave him a good crew or I will
train my level 28 BO so that I will have an SS1 on my account. By the way, He has a +15
Sonarman, +15 PlanesMan BVE w/ only 40 vets and 10 recruits left, +14 BO and 11/11
torp/rel torpers SS1 leveled crew. I think my Montana support crew will go along just fine
with it. =)

I doubt that I will continue his coz I don't want to trade my supports back and forth to
his account just to play his SS and then to my account to play my monty. It would be much
easier to switch in just one account.

I agree with previous, level up playing ASW. It will give you a lot of insight into the
strengths and weaknesses of SS. Plus it is fun.

Unless you're familiar with how an asw operated i'd say level your ss crew from
scratch playin asw. Spend some time as the enemy before driving ss.

LOL! nice reply guys especially the LordKevin avatar pic!(Dr. House) I knew it! xD

but I have read some posts and threads that US SS is decent provided with high leveled
supports which I do have. =)

..gonna be buying a full ss1 crew soon after my 10 premium sailors order have arrive coz I
will be selling 4 boost for credits. nahh.. I don't wanna hassle you bud. Let's just keep this
discussion in the forum for others to see and maybe for future references. Thanks though
for all your hassle on entertaining my thread. =)
