Subs in COW?

[LOK]

Has anyone found a decent way to simulate submarine warfare in TOAW? I am interested both in a WWII type-conflict (more strategic in nature) and a NATO-Warsaw Pact conflict where Soviet SSN try to break out of the GIUK gap to threaten US reiforcements and US/Soviet SSBNs hiding from enemy subs and ASW units until they are ready to fire their missibles.
The event editor is useful in simulating some aspects of these ideas but I was wondering if anyone had other ideas/implementations

Thanks in advance

I can't see TOAW modeling the GIUK gap very well. Naval combat is pretty bad with TOAW.

In fact the best way to design a GIUK scenario would be to make the Atlantic Ocean into land and use tanks as subs. Roads could be used as submarine trenches. Use AT units for anti-submarine warfare such as destroyers and SSNs. Some fixed recon units could be used for the sonar dection chain NATO had in this area.

..yes, but no-one else likes it...simply use invisible counters..,

You can still "see" the counters if you go through every hex, one at a time. I would say that the Event Engine is the best way to model submarine warfare in TOAW.

..s'a big bit of water the Atlantic and you've only a ltd number of aircraft, ..still it'l give you something to do.,
