Got some questions for ya lot.

using GWX, am now in feb. 1943 with my beloved U-105 (started sep. 1939), a lovely IXB U-boat. My main hunting grounds is in the Atlantic, but I passed through Gibraltar today (cake walk) and now I wonder:

1. Is there any good hunting grounds in the Mediterranean in early 1943? all I seem to find with my radar is destroyers...where are the merchants?

2, Is Operation Husky (Invasion of Sicily) scripted in GWX? I didn't find it in the manual......

cheers in advance.

To answer question number 2. Op Husky is in GWX the are also many other operations in the med. Like op slapstick, shingle, and op avalanche:up:

For more information check the GWX manual under the heading

Bottleneck between Sicily and Tunisia, around Malta are usually good places.

Taking a cow like the Type IX into the Mittlemeer?

My man, you are either brave, stupid, or both. In any case, I'll take care of your girl when you die...:D

Bah! I took that "cow" through the Panama Canal, and I got through Gibraltar without any problems at all! I'll just stay until Husky is underway, then it's time to get back to the big pond!:arrgh!:

btw...I don't have a girl......which I think is sad.....since I'm 16 years old and you probably know that it's fairly interesting with girls in my age;)

Ur from Sweden right,, im Norwegian by the way. Sweden is an awesome place to meet chicks, just remember the award winning sun bathing team from Sweden.

To get back on point, i didnt like the Med, i personally think there is to much air cover and lacking in merchant ships.
