  • SS facts, and a loot of talk

Hi, first please if you dont respect the job of a SS dont say anything!

Well here i start, we all know SS and we also know about the "overpowered" speech
from the sunken BB drivers well here i will try to write some stuffs that i consider
facts about SS

Number 1: about team work, you know this, dont you? and those mistery wolfs called
SS arent much diferent, a good SS driver speak with their companions and a winner
SS driver get help from them. Usualy a spoted SS is a dead one and the victory
number of the rushing ones is a loot less compared to the patient ones but why?
well almost all submarines are spoted only by others sub and DDs, Cl and CVs can
spot them also but almost nobody use sonnar on them and this info drives us to the
fact number 2

Number 2: the ASW depents a loot on the new players or on the ones that like do it
(like me) those new playes almost all the time try to kill the SS using low lvl torps
tthat become them in a BIG fail, but they made a little part of the job that is spot
them, also those DDs rush into the middle seeking something to sink, this is where
the BBs have to do their job (BB1 or BB2) your job is sink those DDs and break the
enemy ASW defence and here comes the why they have to do this!

Number 3: Submarines arent only BB silent hunters or CV nightmare, they are great
scouts, and yes! all BBs drivers loves everything that gives them sight so adding your
colaboration and making a deposit on the bank account number at the final of this
post you can improve your game

Number 4: what if they know that he is there, i mean they can see the torps! but
think a little on that... yes what is the first action that a BB does if there is a SS near,
first stop shooting, then run!, after that down the gun angles and wait till SS emerge
and this my little friends is PANIC! and also help to the BB line that shoot like crazy
back there

Number 5: I am a BB driver lvl 120 and a lvl 70 SS driver can kill me, well i am a lvl 70
SS driver and a lvl 30 and below can kill me doing 15k damage only because he drop
some DC almost near from me! and i am a lvl 30 or below DD driver, Hey i got that SS
did anyone saw me???? did you, hey hey i am here

Hey big one i save your SS i mean from a SS, AN SS (this is what i call pride, they
dont hate SS drivers, they hate know that they need the DD help or some inferior
ship, mosquito, bug etc

Number 6: In honor to those brave men that lost their lives on a cilindric vessel that
goes underwater with no life boat, not armored and alone, dont say them cowards
please, if you are in the winner team and the time reach 0, almost all time NONE ss
survive!!keep that in mind

Im realy sorry, i know my english isnt the best, or got nominated for...
enjoy

Nicely put Bestiejager,
There is not ONE ship here that is the BIG guns any more, a large BB can gun down any
ship, a large CV can DB/TB a ship, a sub can sink any ship. Each one has strengths and
weaknesses. I'm a lvl 120 player with BB5s, CV5, SS4s and little ones too, so I play all
the ships.
As mentioned TEAMWORK, I hate when my SS4 gets spotted by a DD and there seems to be 4-5
BBs/CA/CL etc all shooting HH at me before I can kill a BB, sometimes if my BBs are close
behind me I pass on the BBs and keep going behind their lines, sometimes shooting torps to
get the enemy looking at me and not my BBs following.

back to teamwork:
DDs and small ships can scout subs for the BBs, as mentioned once spotted, they're usually
dead.
If the BBs can kill the AA ships and little ships you subs are safer to scout and mess
with the enemy BBs so your BBs can get some shots, then your CVs can keep planes over the
enemy, if you haven't noticed the AA ships are getting better. If the CV driver keeps
getting all their planes shot down and loosing sailors, then they are going to switch
tactics, hence more coming out with more bombers than fighters now.

If a CV does only bombers, that is a plus and minus, plus is he can cripple/kill a BB just
like a BB, teamwork both the BB and CV can quickly kill the enemy BBs alternating hits,
minus this usually means there is not much fighter coverage to protect BBs or scout.
If a CV driver keeps getting all their planes shot down and losing sailors, then they are
going to switch tactics.

whoopsie, back to subs...
during the war, surface ships hated submariners because they were so stealthy and deadly.
My only minus is that a sub should hold more air to stay down longer HOWEVER their speed
should be REDUCED, I should not be able to keep up a surface ship ESPECIALLY underwater, I
should NOT be able to straight out chase a BB and get 3 salvos off at them, they should
flat out out run me.

SS was easily killed when runs out of air, no armor, super slow, they should let SS
have stronger torps (1 torp 1 kill)

SS do their job, is nuke the enemy big BB or hunt the CV so you can survive and hunt
the others... toe toe BB5-6 iisnt team work, teamwork is accept help and say tanks, not
just say to DDs leave and to CV fail XD do you say that? do you say SS are for cowards?

dude you probably have read this sentence "the rope break in the thin place" or
something like that... if enemy dont have Asw or Sonnar (you see them and they have a
weak poit" the ss job is go there a take their line of, if enemy dont have CVs or the FC
and scout fail in some poit the BBs can rush or CVs do bombing rush, if the BBs arent
balanced or only 1 BB6 online (common in nelson) ant the others BB4 etc this BB6 will
take the advange... the point is that you cant say that is all on the team, the player
must do their job (or the other team if capable) can use that weak point to break on
trought, I am sure that you have seen this, and sometimes is bigger than team work

Captcrazy well let me tell you what i do to lvl crew, got my Mogami 1944(you know the
CA) add 3x HH launcher and also 2X DC launcher, 120 bulgue, 12 locals and i am a
suport ship :D i shoot down SS BLIND sooo BBs arent the only ones that can blind shoot
and if they are soooo good doing blind shoot why they say "CV fail" O.o are you
admiting that the only that can realy fail are the BBs???? so BBs dont need anyone
else???... dude ask the CV made from a Yammy hulk if he was underprotected? ask the
Bismark if the torp that made him turn arround for 1 hour was UNNUKED! XD
lol dude... you just dont know anything more to say because i will win in this ;) because
i read a looooot
SSs are not suposed to do ASW to, so dont ask them kill other SS ;)

-what does a BB5 lets say if the enemy cant see him??? he can do -i dont know- like
300k damage?

btw bb5 is a lvl 103 ship not 70 (and you can blind shot a bb not a ss)

and yes ss sunk a lot of ship in ww2 but 95% of them where transport ship most of
them where lightly protected by ship whit poor asw weapond and noob creew.
and and if you look at end 1943 when the canadien navy was gettin more ship and
better asw equipment sub become food for the convoy escorts.
so stop say ss kill a lot of ship in ww2 attaking unescorted convoy is easy

me i hate ss cause :

-80% of the time they dont denfend they team vs ennemy ss
-they can redive beford my gun reload????? - this piss me off
-they ruin the pow ruch lol
-whit they nuke torp they dont need to aim

i dont whant the sub to go, but i hope some days $de will wake up and balance
them

since the sub came out i stop buying stuff from nf i will not give any money to $de
because all they can do whit ,is give us retard balance like they do whit pbb, ss, t4,

MrClueLess i have the "this happens because of this" what does a BB5 lets say if the
enemy cant see him??? he can do -i dont know- like 300k damage? uhmmmmm that is
extrange so if they are blind enemy BB had the advantage no? dont you think that
those SS that do that (taking 5 ships when the enemy lost their ASW and sonar) its the
same that a BB(fill number here) can do when the enemy is blind?
oh oh and please seek how much BBs get into direct combat and how many BBs were
sunk in WW2 by another BB you will find 2 or 3... SS in war sunk more ships than BBs
and YES only one torp could cause a huge damage because they hit under the flotation
line, if the crew dint act well sealing the "afected areas" they could sunk quite fast, and
yes a SS can stop a FF but 2 is to hard, and usualy people dont take to much time until
launch HHs tike crazy over a spoted SS

great post ,shows the balance in game and the new cooperation since submarines
joined the battles , everyone have something to do even FFs and no one is useless like
before.

I used to hate submarines when i had a BB only, but I understood a lot more about
them when i decided to get an SS myself
