View Full Version : Happy Hunting Grounds
To all Kaleuns!
We need your help to compile enemy shipping routes!
Recently I started making detailed notes of shipping routes. Like all intelligence gathered, the observations are fragmentary and need more inputs.
The way I identify a hot area is:
Either a contact report or a real contact. This is followed up by actual intercepts to confirm traffic frequency.
A good example: On my way home a contact appeared too far to act on it. But I would be transiting the area in a day or two.
I drew a course line on the chart. Reaching the location, I patroled this line for two days. During that period one large freighter (11K) and two small freighters appeared. Not a bad place to get tonnage.
One needs to be precise as a few kilomters difference you could end up out of hearing range and each ship's path will be slightly different.
Here is my description of this fairly good hunting ground:
AM51 20 KMS south of northern edge of grid square. Direction of route 095-275. GWX 1.03
Here is another heavily traveled sea lane:
Center of Gibraltar Strait to 20 KMS of Cape Sao Vicente. Some ships take an arched route to the north (westbound traffic mostly). Big tonnage possible here. GWX 1.03
In your reports Include what mode you're using as traffic is quite different in the mods.
Here is my description of this fairly good hunting ground:
AM51 20 KMS south of northern edge of grid square. Direction of route 095-275. GWX 1.03
You might want to use another sytem to precisely designate the location.....
Use the old German grid system for instance....
http://uboat.net/maps/images/grid_quad_41.gif
Read about it here (http://uboat.net/maps/grid.html)
Your location would be something like AM 5133 or 5132
Rem:
Thanks for your imput! :D Good idea for one spot (datum)-- we're looking for a line to identify a route. So two of these locations are needed to establish a line. I use the projected course of a reported ship as a base line.
We also need to keep in mind that routes are not straight.

note: all this data has been gathered between september of 39 and april of 41
also I'm assuming GWX here,
BF17 to CG48 A good line to follow for outbound convoys, mostly cargos some tankers, sometimes a bigger warship.
the eastern half of AM36
CG94 except for grids 1 2 and 3 (but you knew that :up:)
also goes for CG86 although less so as well as CG95 grids 4 and 7
Any grid starting with BE3x mostly inbound convoys
AM17 18 19 and 01
AM53
and between 9-3-1940 until half of april 1940 definitely check out AF8325, but be there early or the nutcases in the Stukas will have sunk all the lovely troopships.
Now, obviously, looking at the map you will notice some of these areas are in shallow waters and definitely within aircraft range. This might result in big red exclamations along the lines of OMGWTFBBQ STAY OUT OF DER KANAL and so forth :D and I couldn't agree more, but sometimes that's the chance you take for nice tonnage :arrgh!:
other no go areas IMO anything starting with AN7x or AN8x, unless of course one is fond of mines and MTBs and planes in 20meters of water or so :D
I've also sort of come up with a no go chart as follows
with a type II sub in 1939 don't go near anything with less than 25 meters of water
add 50 meters to that figure for:
a: type of submarine above II (so add 50 for a VII 100 for a IX)
B: every year after 1939
Ignore tables at own risk or for more than 20k tonnes of warship :arrgh!:
:D Thanks, Cranky!
We have a good start collecting info.
On my present patrol (Late May 1940) I stopped by the E-W sea lane crossing AM51 and stooged around for 48 hours. Made contact with 5 small freighters. they all came within visual contact without my need to change course.
It would have been excellent target practice for the gunnies in calmer weather.
Bump to give Kaleuns a chance to contribute. Come on, guys, time to share your knowledge!

was gathering data tonight, went really well too, found a convoy, had just torpedoed the escorting Fiji and a c3, in my patrol area too BE67 when stupid power company had a surge, :damn::damn: game gone, pc reboots....gah!
will update this thread as relevant info becomes available...
on the matter of the north sea,
find the easternmost point of Scotland, north of Aberdeen, draw a circle about 75km from that point, if in a type II it's definitely a good place to lurk, lots of lone merchants and the occasional convoy, also lots of small fry (schooners and such) ignore those, wait for something big to come along (like HMS Hood) and sink that :|\\
Oh, as an aside, I saw some people mention this elsewhere and have experienced it repeatedly myself.....Passenger/Cargos what's up with those things :damn: are they made of high grade steel and filled with bubblewrap???
they just won't sink with one eel, and they're only 2000 tonnes, what's their weak spot? I'm not shooting any more till I know, it's just not worth it
oh well, If i find some other traffic hotspots I'll report in
Cranky out

I found that out too; I usually don't even engage them because they are so hard to sink.
If I can bag one using the deck gun I will happily send it the bottom, if not....I'll let it go because I am not gonna spend 3+ eels on such a meagre tonnage...
I've managed a few P/C's with one eel. The problem is how much random damage you can do with one torp and the amount of hit points. If you have the time to be patient they can sink from flooding, but you have to hit them somewhere vital to get anywhere.
I think bow hits make a big difference because they then seem to drive down under the waves as the bow compatrment fills with water and the rest of the boat gets pulled under.

If we would just make notes together of all our encounters using the German grid system, we would have a whole lot of dots on a map.
There are map systems online like Google that we could use to make a community dot map, the dots together revealing real shipping lanes. However these maps do not have the German grid system.
I would be possible to do this manually.
To have a picture online and manually put the dots on it.
If everyone would send this person a list of contacts frequently, it could be updated like every week or so.
Downside would be that the closer to europe, the more dots you would have, because that's where we are most of the time.
Any thoughts?
Just south of Ireland. I'm at the library and I dont know what grid loc. that is, but it's the only place I've seen convoys. I've only been to that area twice, as I've only been playing sh3 for about 2 weeks now.
Also, I might be dumb but I shoot at anything that comes across my path. It does take a few torps to sink a Passenger/Cargo, but I shoot anyway. I sometimes even use two torps against a Tramp. I dont know what the torpedo/ship ratio is for every ship, but I think that anything like a Tramp or DD gets one torpedo. Anything bigger gets more eels.
This brings me to a question, I'm playing GWX1.03 and SH3 Commander, and if you sink a ship is that like a "flaming datum" where other ships will avoid like the plague?

BF13-15 :arrgh!:
The southern ends of CJ 72, 73 and Northern ends of CJ 75, 76. Right in the middle between Sardinia and Tunisia. This is a bottle neck where single ships and MKS, MKF, KMF, KMS must pass going east to west and west to east in the Med. It is narrow enough a bottle neck that by cruising in the middle you will pickup any contacts coming thru. I have only cruised this area so far for most of 1942, but I never go home with torpedos left (VII boat) :) So far during '42 the only down side is that most all trafic has been single ships so far and of those 70% were small or coastal merchants and ~30% C2's (I have also seen two Pyro's). Maybe someone else can post what can be expected during the later war years.
One other benefit is that in 1942 there is no allied air cover in this area...there is Axis aircover though...for better or worse...I had a ship sunk right under my nose as I lined up my attack on a Pyro...doh!
I am playing Stock (Heavily modded) with "ImprovedConvoys" Mod.

IIRC the Wiki has some good areas on it. But that could be for vanilla SH3.
KeptinCranky
05-10-07, 04:09 PM
good point gabeeg, let's not forget the med
Only trouble I have is the need to identify every freighter because some of those are Italians and other axis ships supplying the afrika korps, and I'd hate to sink a ship full of brand new Tiger tanks destined for herr Rommel (I did that once :damn:)
also in gwx there's the suez canal, I didn't see any locks on the map, is it actually navigable in a uboat? say a type IXd2 heading for penang, or maybe a U-flak, it would be extremely silly and entirely wrong historically, but what fun :arrgh!:
Bloody passenger/cargoes.
I followed one forever. Damn thing would not sink. Must be carrying ping-pong balls. That is one ship not worth torpedoing.

just got home form work, I like your idea canovaro,
anywhere I can find a more detailed gridmap online, the one that came with the game is not very clear and the ingame worldmap is nice but I can't alt-tab because of serious crashosity in the game if I even think about it :x
I'll just take notes for now :D
KeptinCranky
05-12-07, 09:29 AM
small update, had a very short patrol last night, no useful info, for now I intend to use a copy of the paper map to keep notes on,
I'm just about to start another IXc patrol to freetown, will make notes,
Canovaro, your online editable map idea sounds good, however, I'm not all that good with that sort of stuff (forum tags like [img are about my level :-?)
If there were such a thing though, I'd definitely help in adding contacts, eventually the single dots would sort of coalesce together to give clearly defined shipping lanes and hotspots that are not shown on the ingme map, they'd also indicate areas that see little or no traffic, although, it could also indicate that no-one is actually visiting them...a good example is BF73, I usually go past that or plow right through on the way to better things, but early on, say 39-40-41, when I happened to be there for some reason, can't recall why I did encounter some lone merchants there, big ones too IIRC
sorry for double post :oops:

Me neither, I can't program in html script languages or things like that, but I can make a website and host it myself.
If I would make a picture of the atlantic, I could update that with dots myself. This would be no problem at all to do.
But I would need the community to send me reports of the contacts.
That would be a fun alternative to the weird contact reports in SH3 ;)
I'm still thinking how to make it work.
We could work with colors to make a difference between the sorts of contacts.
Maybe put an arrow to show the general direction?
Would the contact map only be used for convoys? Or also single ships?
What about task forces and single war ships?
What about the mods? Only do this for stock? GWX?
Or use the colors to indicate different years?
If there were such a thing though, I'd definitely help in adding contacts, eventually the single dots would sort of coalesce together to give clearly defined shipping lanes and hotspots that are not shown on the ingme map,
That's the spirit :lol:

Yes you're right, if everyone would use the same route, then there will be lots of contacts there. That's why I intend to use this only for the open ocean grids.
But still, I think most of us use the sea lanes provided by the SH3 map.
That's a bit of a problem.
Any ideas on this are welcome.
sorry for double post :oops:
What double post? I think that's already taken care of by the admin :)

05-12-07, 01:44 PM
well, that was brief patrol.....
ran into a convoy in thick fog, nearly got rammed by a black swan,:o hardly any relevant notes, then just when I have evaded the damn escort, the crew mutinies...they wouldn't respond to anything anymore, all the other buttons worked, but no response from the crew, couldn't manage the boat, couldn't navigate, had to exit the game...:damn::damn:
I generaly don't stick too close to the sealanes, at least, not when heading south, near britain, sure, but when heading to gibraltar or further the convoy lanes on the map are a tad out of the way, and i run into a lot of southbound convoys when sticking to a line from BF7 via CG1 4 and 7, then I choose to close in on the straits or go further south past the canaries
I'll post screenies of my near fatal encounter later, right now I'm just going to reboot the computer and do a type II patrol, or maybe start a career in the med...

I've just been to AM92, because Donitz said so, befehl ist befehl and so on, was pretty hairy, and of course the big convoy comes along just when I've only one eel left. still sunk a tanker with it though.
then, when I've waited for dark, along comes a taskforce.....and no eels at all, very frustrating :damn:
came out with 40k tons this patrol and a promotion to full Kapitanleutnant, I think it might be time to retire this captain after this patrol (number 8)
oh well, below are some notes on contacts between 27-2-41 and 6-3-41
lone ships
BF1369 heading 0 slow, specific type unknown, failed intercept
BF2111 small freighter heading 60 9knts
AM9746 type unknown ssw slow
BF2419 large cargo ssw slow
larger groups
28-2-41 AM9734 convoy ssw, chages heading to due south, 5 knts
AM9242 TF 2 CL 4 DD heading 210 at least 20knts
Kpt. Lehmann noted in another thread that some changes will be made in GWX 1.04 might want to wait for that, who knows :hmm:

First they should be worth about double the tonnage. Also I have sunk one with about 3 rounds from a deck gun.:lol: Also AM52, it is the best for tonnage. I literally got 120K of tonnage out of one grid. :smug:
It was a good mix of convoys and single contacts.

We need a database for this, a BDU hotline...
enter:
encounter:-- ship, convoy, dd, etc
datum;-- time of day
location;-- bdu grid, like be49
comment;-- severe dd here!, watch out.
results from the database just show the info.. all compiled together..
if anyone want to pick this off, joomla with a facile form will do.
I can have it up in short time, but it will be a telnet database connection, not webbased., nor your regular info connections, but sufficient. PM me in you are interrested?
Here is Tanker Alley:
BF 13.
On southern boundary measure 35 kms from western edge of grid. Then run a line 60 -240 degrees. draw second 60 degree line at 60 kms. You will find plenty of large tankers inside that corridor.15K tons per ship.
This also passes through NW corner of BF 17

05-13-07, 08:38 PM
Confirmed Brag!
I'd noticed this as well, but not that specific, I usually cruise through there on the way to my patrol grid, BF17 is like a box of chocolates....:D
concerning the Eastern Med as follows:
CO6477 seems to be a turnaround point for lots of small groups of warships, watch out there unless you like depthcharges for breakfast
Stick your sub about 50km below the first M in the word Mittelmeer on the map, draw a line parallel to the entire word Mittelmeer, sail along that, rinse and repeat, works like a charm plenty of lone-merchant allsorts, only trouble is they are often escorted by 1 or 2 DDs, also taskforces and groups of DDs heading for Tobruk
also look for two CLs at 15knts heading to Tobruk from CO42, gave me quite a shock spotting those only 4000 meters away and me still surfaced :o didn't see me thankfully
also CO35, look for an S class sub heading roughly 290 at 7knts, 1 fish wont take it out and it has a deckgun too, but it's worth shooting for coolness' sake, doesn't register as a kill though in the after action log but you do get the tonnage

How to make this visual with a database?
See my ideas some posts before. I'm planning on working out a visual map.
In fact, I've already started.
A visual map showing sea lanes would be the greatest. So far, I have identified 3. Will check out a tanker route during my present patrol. (04 Aug. 1940) GWX 1.03
Gotta make sure that info provided by Kaleuns states what version of game they are using.

That is exactly what I have in mind.
Can you confirm that GWX and the other supermods change shipping routes and frequencies (talking about merchants).
We set sail to the AM52 promise land in our new Type III to see all this "Tonnage". All the way there we were forced under by air patrol, dogged by DD's and armed trawlers. Finally make it, setup patrol and surface to attack sound contacts only to find fishing boats. The crew's morale is down from the long journey, repeated air bombardments and boat repairs. I'm cursing the "faulty" radio reports about this area. We submerge and wait for darkness to cover our retreat. Four hours before nightfall, Warship, long range, moving slow and closing. One hour later half the hydrophone dial is nothing but slow spinning screws. Five completed patrols and NO convoys… Whatever is heading are way is massive.
Here’s the rub, the sea is calm, sun is up, visibility is high, there is no chance of surfacing to gain distance on the convoy (Air Patrols are relentless). Can’t waste the batteries, they will be needed for the escape. I’m leaning towards a strategy of putting one fish on each large freighter/tanker, going deep, reload and come back at after DD’s have left to finish of the wounded. Or would it be best to salvo two large ones and assure the kill?

I dont think it is easy with a map, with so much ships sailing around it may be cluttered like hell.
Maybe a simple database, where one enters a grid name, like BE, and a year and month. Once can then see what ships are reported that month in that sector. Like this:
Query: BE 1942 04
Result:
BE10 merchant
BE25 destroyer
BE45 convoy
Possibly with comments of the Kaleun who entered it in the database.
Also, a date can also be used, so that when one enters a date, yy/mm/dd the database gives results for a week after the date too.
It could be presented on a map, in one knows how.. must be doable. :o

Yes every supermod gets its own map, and the years 39-45 will be in 7 colors from white to red.
Don't know about speed and attack info, I don't think that is relevant here. We want to know if and what we will likely encounter when we go to a certain spot, not how fast they go imo.
Historically that would have been vital info, but not in this project imo.
I'm already working on it now.
The biggest challenge is to keep the graphic file size as low as possible. I work with gif's, it's working out alright.
Soon we will have a community contact collection map.

In one of my earlier careers ran into a rather big convoy June 5, 1940 almost exactly in the center of AN16, course WNW (draw a line that goes WNW (292.5 I think) from the center of AN16, then extend it the opposite direction and that was pretty much their course. Speed 7kts, lightly guarded by 5 Flower Class Corvettes and Armed Trawlers, sunk 11 out of 18 merchant ships in the convoy plus all escorts, including two that went to the aid of the stricken convoy. Expended all torps and deck gun ammo. Later on in the night I caught sight of a Destroyer (forgot class), leading two Large Cargos, course NW from the center of AM16. Hope that's detailed enough, I don't have a screenshot of the map, just the log from the patrol.

part 2 of scapa flow intel collecting mission.
the markings are DD's who are stational until you sink a ship.
the circkle's (dont know how to spell this) are V&W's on patrol... they move around there so be carefull when passing there. the west enterance is to avoid. there is a sub net (struck it once a while ago).
next intel will be from the scapa flow harbour.

here is part 3.
now you can see how precise i was with the DD's.
now... in the harbour are 1 V&W (below on the left) and next to it is a troop transport. in the harbour itselve are a armed trawler (middle) a small merchant (right) a modern tanker (up) and a small tanker (left) above those 3 DD's are 2 fishing boats. and on the right next to the 2 DD's is a trawler (not a armed trawler)
and if you are lucky enuf you can spot a battleship here (mostly a revenge class)

U 303 reporting on tobruk 8-11-41
Intel for you harbor raiders out there, not my thing I must say, this info comes dearly bought :cry:, ah well in a little while Herr Rommel will be knocking on the door making their life miserable...
http://home.wanadoo.nl/omf17235/images/tobruk1941.jpg
To clarify, the subnet is from the coast to the southern lighthouse on the pier
stationary traffic detected
1 Vosper MTB
1 V&W DD
1 Landing Ship tank
1 Troop Transport
1 Medium Cargo
2 Small Tankers
at least 1 small trawler
1 Tramp Steamer
also in that vicinity:
8-11-41 8.46u CO5994 2 merchants in small convoy speed medium heading east
1 of those turned out to be a liberty cargo, sunk that but man those things pack a lot of guns, puts an auxiliary cruiser to shame, the other 1 was a passenger cargo (of course) had to deckgun it into submission only 55km off Tobruk, thankfully the weather was overcast and light fog
U-45 reporting.
Here’s some hunting grounds from my last two patrols in December 1939 - Feb 1940:
3rd patrol which resulted in 106 K tonnes and 4th patrol with 131 K tonnes.

i decided to collect intel of Firth Of Forth harbour.
on my way thare i got bothered by a armed trawler and a V&W. i sank them both and continuing to the harbour.
edit: reached Firth Of Forth. but not whitout trouble. once your spotted by the enterance patrol (elco TB) you will get some anoying fly's around you.
stay submerged when going to the harbour. coastal bunkers are stationed at the smallest space. once passed this point there is no danger to reach the harbour.
there are NO SUBNETS or MINEFIELDS only a elco,armed trawler and 1 DD at the base
in the base there are large and small merchants also 1 tanker.
edit 2: after sinking the warships you gan go into the harbour to destroy the ships with your deck gun. be sure to be INSIDE at the end. there is a coastal bunker nearby.
here is a pict of what i have done in the harbour

Howdy,
I've just been to Malta, but the weather was just too crummy to do anything useful except map the patrol patterns, which I did
also ran in to one mother of a taskforce unfortunately they spotted me so I had to evade contained 5 dido CL, a bunch of escorts, A King George V, the Nelson and the Rodney. :o
after this I made my way back to tobruk, ran into another taskforce, 2 fiji's this time, sank them both :arrgh!:
I'll compile the data on all sorts of contacts later and post it as well as the Malta harbor patrol patterns but right now I'm sleepy and work tomorrow:-?

Dear fellow Kaleuns,
I need two or three volunteers to testvisit the new Contact map project website before it goes beta.
It's just a test walk-around if everything works 100%. If you have suggestions about how it works, that would be very welcome too.
Plus I need comments and suggestions on the text because my English is often a bit basic if not wrong.
If you're matching these requirements and are enthousiastic about helping improving the project, and are very often reading your PM's, please send me one!.

Hi all you flak-happy kaleuns!
To go back to the original 'Happy Hunting grounds' thread...even tho' the new 'contacts' map sounds very exciting and I can't wait to try it out
Got back from a seriously BAD day at work in a foul mood, and decided to give those pesky Tommies what for ! Fired up vanilla SH3 (Apple iMac 2Gig, 73% realism - no manual targetting), and set of in my type 1X, with type 3 control tower (2 zwillings and 1 heavy 37mm which is damned near useless except for fishing boats)
Couldn't be bothered to drag all the way accross to New York - so set off for BF13 from St.Naz as I read here that it had a good tanker lane in it.
However, as I passed Cornwall an Elco PT boat and, a Hunt DD and a V & W got in my way - followed a few mins after by 2 armed Trawlers. I vented my anger and blew thru' them all in a matter of a few minutes (real time) - and only 2 eels used.
The Armed trawlers came right at me, side by side, but my valiant 105mm deck gun made very short work of them, I think about 9 rounds total. Both sank side by side -virtually at the same time. I didn't surface until they were within 800 metres. The 2nd one took a round of HE directly from the bow, about 2 metres above the deck which blew away the wheelhouse, stack, boiler room and the deck gun all in one (lucky) shot. only needed 2 more rounds of AP under the bow, and a bit of flak fire, to sink her. He He!
Proceeded to BF13, but not patient enough to wait for the tabnkeerrs - got onyl a couple in the 3 days I was there. However, the Sunderlands, and few Hurri's, just kept on coming - usually a little after sun-up. Sometimes in groups of 6 at a time - and I think I got all of the last bunch of 6 that came together...
I must admit that I find Sunderland killing really EASY....but my tip for you is DON'T fire at them when they dive at you (maybe 5 or 6 rounds to put them off their aim) - but save your ammo and shoot at the A$$ of them Immediately as they have passed over you, a clean kill almost every time. Works for Fighters also, but for B24's you need to CRASH dive! In all I got 26 Sunderlands and a few Hurri's before i ran out of ammo.
Unfortunately I also lost several of my valiant crew including my Flak gunner of 16 patrol experience, 5 or 6 sailors, and 3 or 4 more killed and seriously injured during damage control. May they all rest in peace.
Not sure why report says no creww lost, as I definitely needed to visit the Barracks and do some serious recruiting when I got back to St.Naz !! Poor old U-69 was alo pretty beat-up and it took several months to bring here back to life from 26% hull integrity and replace 1 gun that was destroyed.
BUT, we dealt the 'Island Monkeys' in their little puddle-jumping airplanes a serious blow today that they won't forget in a hurry ! Hopefully, (thanks to Dowly's vertrieb) I hope that I have managed to post a few screenies below...
PS: I'm sure this won't be so easy in GWX, which I will graduate to in next couple of weeks.

its off to the next brit harbour... this time it is VERRY close to the channel.
i think next harbour is IN the channel :hmm:
(im going arroung england to scout all harbours. started from the north then east and now south)
anyway... off we go :up:
edit: 1 april 1940. Grid AN 76.
on my wat to Lowestoft (to see if its a harbour) i spotted a large convoy sailing SSW at 7 knots.
4 V&W DD's are escorting this convoy. biggining attack
edit2: after a long cat and mouse game with 4 V&W DD's i destroyed them. now im destroying the convoy with the dek gun
KeptinCranky
05-18-07, 12:14 PM
Lowestoft has no harbor, It does have the Walls icecream factory right on the coast (been there once) so you can get the crew some icecream :D
historically it had a destroyer flottilla and several squadrons of Torpedoboats, since it's the most easterly port in Britain
If you go near there, be aware lotsa interesting spiky balls that go boom in that area.
The next harbor would be southend :o
good hunting
Kaleu. Jochen Mohr
05-18-07, 12:43 PM
harwich first :up:.
been at Lowestoft but no base spiky boom balls or a flottile of DD's and torpedo boats.
but im chased by 2 V&W's from a 2 cond convoy for 8 or 12 hours :x
they lost theyr DC drop thingy but they still are passing me to drop charges :doh:
EDIT: THANK GOD AND ALL OTHER SAINTS!!!!!! those 2 V&W's were crashing on my cunningtower... both did 3 or4 times and THEY ARE DESTROYED!!!!! now i can surface and speed up to Willemshaven

05-18-07, 12:58 PM
don't know when to give up, go home and have a cup of tea, you get that sometimes, it's annoying, you could go periscope depth and try to sink them, just don't get rammed
I'm off to a secluded bay in Crete to reload external fish, then it's back to CO64 to find something juicy to sink with them,
I've only found one convoy in the med so far, and they were Italians, 3 bloody passenger liners and I'm not allowed to sink them, that's just wrong :damn::damn:

I got one, but only because its speed was 6.5 knots, so I could observe, flank, ambush and sink it like if it was a merchant. Usually they have speeds above 20 kts.

this time im on my way to Portsmouth... verry close but hard to get there.... lots of DD's
edit: im in the base. had to maneuver manualy to get inside.
there are 2 DD's there one on patrol and one stationary.
when i arrived it was bad weather and the patroling DD got stuck in a pier.
anyway... in the harbour is LOTS of tonnage. spotted 2 medium and 3 small tankers.
there are more ships but cant see what kind.
updates soon
edit2: i waited for good weather and then i spotted another medium cargo.
of all the ships there is 1 neutral cargo ship.

Found the HMS Hood docked in Plymouth. 5 eels later and well you know the story. :up: October 26, 1939 was the date. Made it out alive too! Just be prepared to be patient. Ran into an incoming Task Force also on my way out heading south. :rock: Just freighters, pass/cargos and the Hood were in Plymouth Harbour btw. Tons of DD's and Armed Trawlers patrolling the entrance as well as the bay. Sorry, but I have no screenshots for reference.

you have to go to the south enterance and when in front of it you have to turn to the north enterance. that way you will evade the subnets

Sorry meine herrn, I was thinking, since a lot of them appear randomly, RND layer, it is impossible to pinpoint them on either an exact location, nor a specific time.
Even SH3Gen says something of this, because of the rnd layer it isnt possible to have all the ships, some spawn.

U-51 has sailed around brittania and reached Loch Ewe Harbour with a bit of trouble.

destroyed a armed trawler guarding the enterance (always handy if you need to escape fast)
destroyed in total 1 fly (swordfish), 1 large merchant (at scapa) and 2 armed trawlers (at loch ewe)
edit: GODDAMNIT!!! the harbour is full of neutrals and hospital ships.... no Fiji this time either...
starting attack on the only few brits there and then get the hell out of there before the coastal arty spots me

1 armed trawler
1 small merchant
1 medium merchant
2 fishing boats
Neurtals in the harbour:

k after raiding Loch Ewe i spotted another base... Lerwick Sub Base.
now hear this... i know i was nutz and a compleet lunatic... but now it a bit to much for me to...

slammed 3 fish into the HMS King Georg V, she slowed down, heavy listing, missed a screw and half her boilers out of action, still sails off, :damn::damn:
Hit the HMS Nelson as well, 1 mag fish right underneath the tower, but no bada-boom, just slows down, shrugs it off and sails on, that's 60k tonnes not mine :damn::damn:

Just transferred from Bergen to warmer climates with 23. Flotille and took command of a new Type VIIB (U-83). At the habour masters request we spent the day surveying the habour approaches and can indeed confirm that the depth colours on SHIII maps are A LOT darker than the SHIV maps. As a consequence of our successful mission we will now spend another two weeks in Salamis while the dive planes, forward tubes and propeller shafts gets repaired.

... Was gibsts es mit das Mitelmeer?...
not verry much...
raided Tobruk (when in enemy hands) ,bibraltar,salamis (this one is pretty easy as it is only guarded by a armed trawler) ,alexandria,Port Said and Valletta....
Gibraltar has a Dido and a other (same looking) class.Port Said has also a Dido...
both have also a pretty high tonnage on merchants
the others have only LOTS of tonnage...
and when out of torpedo's... go to salamis :arrgh!:
KeptinCranky
06-01-07, 07:07 PM
I made a recon of Valetta but couldn't get close, weather was too bad and I kept constantly getting forced under by assorted taskforces, one only DDs the other 2 cruisers and DDs and my old friends the King George V and the Rodney came barelling along as well....only they all have radar now so no getting good position:-?
I did sink a total of 5 passenger liners in the med, will compile my contact data tomorrow or this weekend anyway

I count:
2 Revenge battleships
1 CL
far too many DDs
at least 5 big tankers
No wait, they're all tankers???
Are you sure you didn't put this together in the mission editor?
I hope you radioed this in and someone sent out every air and fleet asset available in Italy to sink this thing because.....damn

just got back from the atlantic, did a little tour around England, first through der Kanal and then up around Scotland, ran out of eels just south of Ireland, so went deckgunning along the rest of the way:D
Ran out of ammo while shelling a Large Merchant in AN43, it did stop but wasn't sinking so I plowed my boat right into it at 17knts,....twice
That took it down, now I'm going to have some dinner then will make a comprehensive contact report

Kaleuns,I actually need some advice regarding convoy routes right after they pass "BF13","BF15" grids in Celtic Sea.:) It's rather tricky to catch them in shallow waters of "BF" grids. (I am playing GWX v.1.03)
So does anybody know exact grids where they do hit deep waters - might be somewhere around in eastern "BE" grids?I mean convoys that leave Britain heading for U.S.
Any advices will be appreciated.Good Hunting :D :up:
