Don't forget the classic Sub tactic of AB'ing.Side A Subs go North, Side B Subs go South.One of our more prestigious sub captians think its a valid tactic, but he never was confused for an intelligent player.

You cannot expect all ss to rush to each other at the start of the game. If I am in a non-KM ss4, I will not rush in to fight a KM ss6 head on. It is better to either defend (which usually resulting in my ss being sunk by friendly hh or getting no attack because the enemy ss was killed with the help of my sonar) or I can go to a different area to avoid a head on confrontation. Do not tell me that this is AB'ing. This is the same as low lvl fgt avoiding the high level enemy fgt to scout for the team. It always depends on the situation: e.g., are there dd and escort in the friendly bb line, what are the enemy ss, are there sonar in enemy bb line. I do not see that this is any less intelligent. . . (even from my mouth = not a prestigious player).
Also, you cannot blame the ss players. There is little exp in ss vs. ss battle. The game will need to increase the exp for damaging ss due to the reduced tonnage. This will also help to discourage TK'ing ss (basically there is no or little penalty also due to the tonnage).

Are you referring to my post? Avoiding ships at the same level such as ss6/bb6/cv6 going north vs. ss6/bb6/cv6 going south can be labeled as AB'ing. Using strategy to optimize what you have as I said in my post is not AB'ing, in my opinion. If you believe the correct way to play this game is to rush head on to your disadvantage. I have nothing to say. This definitely does not work in teamplay and HA. Rushing a non-KM ss5 head on against KM ss6 and dying in the process can cause your team to lose in games like HA. Strategy is part of most games.
