HH are for sissies! Use Depth charges like real (and poor men) do! LOL JK.
LJ, I get your point about balancing the subs, still you have to consider that for the meanwhile, we are stuck with them (regardless of us liking it or not), IMO subs are ok as they are. I mean, if you a re a BB player they are annoying as hell and in HA where they can just borderhump their way to victory, well it is not bearable. But still, the solution is not placing a limit on the number of SS that can enter. Imagine this, a fleet made up entirely of SS attacks a harbour, a harbour that is well defended and have proper ASW ships, the chances are that the subs will be destroyed easily. hunting for a sub is not really a bad thing, if you know that there is a sub there just leave, and let them advance and surprise them in the next square with a good BB/CV configuration backed up with some DDs with HH and DC. It is not that hard to do.
HA can still be enjoyed with subs in them, and you have to think for the sub drivers too. I mean, they only got 4 ships to choose from, nothing more. Imagine this, you get an SS BO to drive a ship and you just find out that, when you reach your last ship; you are still unable to beat BB3s and up. And that you will not get another ship of that class in months, even years. Unless you switch to another nation and level another Bo (Which isn't that fun). And on top of all, you are now not even able to play with your sub on HA? Then what? Subs will be balanced when the new subs are released. but still, you have to consider that most sub drivers out there will get their SS5 right when they come out since most of them are lvl 100+ and things will just be the same. SS4 will be nerfed and SS5 will take the place SS4 had. Same thing when SS6 comes out. It is not a matter of what sub they have, it is a matter of how they play it, nerfing or excluding SS4 from HA will not change anything. What would you do when you get an SS6 that kills 6 BB6 and can borderhump? Call imbalanced again? This is a game of end, and in the SS line, the END is SS4. I know it is a lvl 74 ship, it is not close to an ideal balance, but you are then comparing it to other shiplines that DO have another ship to advance to. I am probably mistaken in everything I said, but I just don't want to see sanctions put on SS because of their imbalanced nature (Even though it is not the players fault, and those are the ones that will get really hurt if that law is approved)
