Good morning

I am a noob second time around (played until early 2009, just started back).
Hi to anyone that has been around that long.

I used to use UK SS2 a great deal in the past, mainly as manual aim is hard
for me over CL level ... when mouse interface disappears :-( (how I wish that
manual interface was available on all levels!).

Firstly ... OMG, subs have been nerfed to death (personally I think they used
to be overly good, not that I used to complain, but now I cant even get to the
enemy battle line due to lack of air or the dreaded HH). Speed, damange and
air supply all appear far lower than in the past. But, I may well persist.

My primary UK BO is now around lvl 62 and the SS3 is available .... however my
high lvl 50's hvy torp men still cant use the tubes. So first question is .... what
lvl do torp men need to be on UK SS3?

My speed also seems shockingly slow on the SS2 (lvl 55 eng with a few vets)
but obviously cant added multiple engineers due to need for Planesman and
Sonar (i say obviously, but happy to be corrected). Any tips on engine setup to
combat sloth like ambling across the battle field ( or should that be battle
pond?) appreciated.

Also any general tips and tactics for UK SS under the "new" patches would be
very appreciated .... those who are about to take the "subs should all burn in
hell or die screaming as the water pressure crushes their flimsy ruptured hulls"
approach need not reply ;-)

All the best, and it's good to see the UK line still going strong after all these
years
