From u-boat.net:
Quote: At 05.48 hours on 16 May, 1941, the unescorted Rodney Star (Master Samuel John Clement) was hit in the stern by one of two torpedoes from U-105 about 420 miles west-southwest of Freetown. The ship was hit in the bow and amidships by two coups de grâce at 06.20 and 07.46 hours, but remained afloat. The U-boat surfaced and fired 91 high explosive rounds and 22 incendiary rounds from the deck gun into the waterline. Shortly before the ship sank by the stern in 05°08N/19°15W at 09.30 hours, a shell exploded in the barrel which was tore apart and wounded six men of the gun crew. :unquote.

This example brings me to ask: will we get AP and starshell ammo back for the deck gun in GWX 1.04?

Also, I have noted that in GWX 1.03 I am no longer able to adjust ambient volume on my hydrophones

..... will this be corrected in 1.04?

The new AI subs look great.
Can we have AI u-boats in campaign mode, to hunt as part of a wolfpack?
I know from the Norwegian invasion in 1.03 that other u-boats are out there on the map ..... it would be nice to actually meet up with one or more.
