dragoon19 Posted September 28, 2002 Share Posted September 28, 2002 I am currently playing UK in a PBEM and I am a little short on MPPs. In order to strengthen my naval forces in the Med in a relativly cheap way I was thinking of sending a sub to the MED. So does anybody have some experince with sending a UK sub to the Med and if so good or bad? Is there a way allied subs can be placed so that they sink MPPs from Italy or Germany?

If I remember correctly, they attack with the strenght of a battleship. They don't move as far though, and they have 0 in defence. If you research sub technology, then you increase the chances for your sub to dive when the enemy attacks (I belive it was 25% chance of diving at tech0, and +5% for every tech after that). So subs can be pretty lethal and cost effective indeed. Is there a way allied subs can be placed so that they sink MPPs from Italy or Germany? Dragoon19No. Where should that be anyway?

Norse Posted September 29, 2002 Share Posted September 29, 2002 Do you know what kind of quantities went from Libya and to Italy? How about this one, the iron-ore from Bergen to Germany ~Norse~ [ September 29, 2002, 12:37 PM: Message edited by: Norse ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rouge Posted September 30, 2002 Share Posted September 30, 2002 anyway the navel strength in the med isnt really 100% true, Cunninghams fleet had 3 battleships Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norse Posted September 30, 2002 Share Posted September 30, 2002 Rouge, 1 naval counter is not 1 ship. It is a whole fleet of ships. The difference between the cruiser unit and the battleship unit is mainly tonnage that goes into the fleet, and of course some fleet specifications. So 3 ships isn't 3 units, maybe it's 1 unit. ~Norse~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
