1941: A bit complicated
1942: Begins to be hell
1943.Imposible

Could this be the hard line?

Well technically, it was never easy in real life

OM is more or less what it should be. Air power in particular gets to be extremely difficult after 1943.

This is a great mod messed around with it a while back maybe a year ago or so loaded it up with the most recent files the other day and I have to say I like this mod looks great and the full TDC(whatever its called in German) is awesome nice to have that in your scopes.

You do have to crash dive alot but in a VIIA/B/C not much trouble they go down pretty fast in a IX then it is a bit more hairy.

I like all the tower emblems as well.

no TFs that I can find. That is my only complaint, but it is a big one.

I'm currently running a Type II in OM, and can see the interior just fine.

Has anyone found the Bismark/Hood at the battle of the Denmark straits? I think it is Denmak, but if not, I am close. Date and coordinate would be nice!!

andrescopeland · 05-27-11, 07:27 PM

also most of the dials in all boats are black....... really starting to annoy me now..... going back to gwx!

Damn, the Bismark must have a cloaking device. Come out, Come out and Playeee! (taken from the movie, "The Warriors.")

I have a question concerning neutral ships.Are they like real world WWII?In other words will I get dinged for attacking a US merchant before a certain date?
I am in a IX U-38 and my patrol started in Jan.1940 I have already sunk a Norwegian cargo and also a Greek cargo along with 2 Brit(I know they are fair game

) cargo and 1 Brit tanker.I passed on a US cargo ship though because I knew for sure they where not on the list yet right not in 1940 anyway or am I wrong or does OM concern itself with accurate neutrality dates?

As the skipper of U-38 I personally feel that if they are supplying England or France they are fair game(not Swedes though).I spared the American
because the crew saw civilian passengers that is my excuse.

Side note anyone else notice that the Type IX dives much faster if you order "dive" rather than "periscope depth"(P) it takes the crew around 55 seconds to slip under using "dive"(D)
and starting from a speed of 11 knots it is almost as fast as "crash"(no submariner came up with that name) dive.

P.S. I know rather heavy patrol and I am not done yet they just keep heading right for me .

Also gonna have to run a Type II career haven't tried one of those since SH3.

I believe you are not credited if you sink a neutral.

Stealhead · 05-30-11, 10:55 PM

Oh well no big deal so what is fair game in 1940?Ha ha the real U-38 sank a Greek ship in 1939 http://www.uboat.net/allies/merchants/ships/142.html
strange that I did not know this until today but the commander of U-38 cared not for neutrality he also sank Swede ships.

To hell with neutrality then

By the way the real U-38 was a very lucky boat she sank 188,967 GRT and
only was attacked once for minor damage and no men where lost on her.

OM leaves these decisions up to you - there are no neutral ships in the campaign, only enemy and friendly. Any ship that could possibly be a legitimate target will certainly count in your favour. You can sink 'neutrals' for credit, however I personally keep house rules regarding these when appropriate.

I'm goin' down · 05-31-11, 12:48 AM

csengoi's enemies of Germany mod lists the date various countries became enemies of Germany and inserts them on the help menu.

Stealhead · 05-31-11, 01:31 PM

Well in that case I will just decide based on the situation at hand.
