What is the date you have to complete the missions by . Patrol around anywhere until this date is reached then head to base .

So, here's my predicamen - I did as many others, didnt pick up this mission since it wasnt deadlined until 1st of July, and ended up loading a previous mission, dashing from west of Ireland to get to Narvik before the 8-9th of April, did manage to sink QE en route with 5 of my remaining torps, and another 2 merchants with my last 3 torps + guns, now I am a few days away from the 9th of April, with zero fish and approximately 20+15 AP/HE-grenades left and another 3 merchants to kill before mission complete.

What to do, go to closest port for resupply and hope to be back in the patrol area before the shipping is completely gone, or try to find small merchants that I shoot and / or ram to try to get the mission done?

Which is the closest port that can supply me with a brand new setup of explosive fish?

A quick question - what happens if I fail to complete the mission? I have collected 4 crosses for "Blockade of Germany", "British waters", I can easily collect 3 more as I'm only 1-2 ships far from completing "British Supply lines", but it doesn't seem I'll be able to complete Weserubung (spent a month in Norway, not a single target showed up).

So, again - what after I fail but still have 7 crosses for other missions?

First, sorry for reviwing this old thread. But i'm Currently on this misson (Operation Weserübung) and having some problems.
I have sunken the 5 ships, found the Warship convoy.
The problem is when i sink the main ship (Queen Elizabeth?) my uboat suddenly gets destroyed for no apparent reason.

First i thought that the other warships might have spotted me and killed me. So i tried finishing them off first, and sinking QE last. I managed to sink all ships but after 5 seconds my uboat just got destroyed again...
Could this be a bug? Or am i not supposed to sink this ship?
It's just weird cause i can't find any reason for why my uboat gets destroyed.
I was not moving at all, not in shallow water, and no ship spotted me...

I sunk the battleship on April 1st 1940 she was on the same route which the merchants take, she was a QE class, probably meant to be Warspite as that is historically accurate, but Warspite wasn't actually sunk so the game is a bit weird when it omes to accuracy


the most difficult thing was finding the ships to sink luckily the BB seems to count as 1 but apart from that there are hardly any merchants and destroyers are quite hard to hit as they are usually in groups

now I am onto 'Happy Times'

Hi Guys

I looked at all of your info for sighting dates and was expecting some action on March 20th when this passed I thought I was going to have to wait until March 31st which was the next reported sighting. On March 23rd at 05.30am the BB appeared with 4 escorts on the way out from Narvik just a short way in front of the blue arrow. Mission completed.
Best wishes Peter

I thought this was 1 of the easiest missions so far. You can find an sink the 5 ships an the Battleship in the Narvik area, i would set a shoe string search pattern up an down the route that leads to the Narvik Port. Its pretty much a bottle neck so all incoming merchants an War ships have to get past you once i had sunk the 4th ship then the Battleship surrounded by destroyers would show up 2 torpedos later she's resting easy at the bottom

This one has taken me forever. I was stuck on this for months.

I am also an idiot. I kept looking for enemy transports to sink and letting all neutral ships pass.

Then yesterday I was hunting and actually looked at one of the "Neutral" ships. It was flying a Norwegian flag.
I thought to my self " Wait, this is the invasion of Norway! Why are they neutral? I sank that sucker quicker than a doughnut in a cop shop man!
Looked and it counted!

THEN noticed the orders being ANY ship entering Narvik waters. Sooooo, all this time I had been letting targets just sail by. Ughhhhh......someone needs to do a Downfall video of Hittler getting the news one of his subs just let the Norwegian navy escape due to misinterpreted orders.

Default how do I request this mission in Wilhelmshaven?

In Wolves of Steel megamod Operation Weserübung open date is March 20,1940. As soon as it shown on the map I reached and docked at Wilhelmshaven in couple of game hours, but after request when I back to submarine I saw the game date is April 13th,1940. Is it normal? Cause on April 13th Operation Weserübung already ended and all ports in objective area are no longer enemy. Am I doing something wrong?

Do I need to refit only? and start this mission without request?
If it is so, what is the objectives in this mission? I hope there will be some radio messages intead of mission objectives.

I found only below explanation.

"Stock 14 days in bunker increased to more realistic 24 days + appropriate changes in Flotillas.upc"

If I need to change some values in flotillas.upc I couldnt find which one.
I do not want to do something wrong. I will also be very happy if you can help me a bit more or you can direct me a topic which explains this solution. (I also couldnt find any useful topic via my searchs)
