At minimum, 2 torpedo men, 1 sonarman, 1 planesman, 1 BO.

At a higher lvl, if you want, 2 gunners for the SS4 and an engy.

thanks

On KM SS3 you have got 3 support slots and 4 on the ship. I advise you on ship - 1 BO, 2 x Torpers, 1 Rep/Rest; on support Planesman, Sonarman and Engy

On KM SS4 also 3 support slots and 5 on the ship. The best setup IMO is - on ship 1 BO, 2 x Torpers, 1 Rep, 1 Rest (or instead 1Rep/Rest 1HugeGunner for use of Flak gun); on support 1 Planesman, 1 Sonarman and 1 Engy

On KM SS5 you have got 5 support slots and 4 on the ship. On ship 1 BO, 2 x Torpers, 1 Rest/Rep; on support 1 Planesman, 1 Sonarman and 3 x Engy

So in general you need 1 BO, 1 Sonarman, 1 Planesman, 2 Torpers, 3 Engies, 1 Rep, 1 Rest / 1 Huge Gunner / 2nd Rep.

2 gunners aren't much more effective than 1. Flak guns are split 1 gun in front of kiosk and 2 guns behind kiosk. So 1 gunner can use 2/3 of your flak guns and leaving 1 place for Rep/Rest which is more useful. Without any Rep or Rest your SD and Reprate will be real disadvantage.

Have fun with the easiest line out there.

hi good luck, by the way....why u want km ss?

Restorers don´t do anything once the Crew reaches 900 SD

VERY IMPORTANT!

Do Not put any rookies experts or vets on your BO.

Don't worry about gunners for now because 1 engy will not be able to push all that crew until 90+ or more.

Leave off whatever you have to for MAX SPEED even if it's a few torps.  Better a few hits and run out of torps than full torps and too slow to get to target.

Swap out torpedomen every other game until you get a SS with front and rear.

***VERY FRUSTRATING UNTIL SS3***
