I just started a new campaign (my second ever) with the 7th and a VIIB starting off of Kiel... This is stock SH3 plus lastest patches and SH3 Commander. Can I go through the Kiel Canal to save fuel, or that something that comes with GWX (scare of it for now, I don't think the laptop can handle it and still be able to play it...)? Thanks!

I believe it only comes with GWX. :cry:

Hi!

Not only does it come with GWX, GWX gives you the option to automatically plot your course through the canal (rather than doing it manually or trying to plot your course manually) from east to west or west to east.

Kiel canal also appears in NYGM too
Not sure about WAC

Was also available as a stand alone mod by Tigerkatzi (sp ) or Ref
Someone may have that or may be at UBRS

Using GWX, I have discovered that impassable collisions in the canal are possible when initiating a patrol with delayed sailing. I have remained staid at the pier, looking over the harbour, watching the Aruba, identifying ships, and otherwise tending to ships business for the last two attempts. A tide or a current drift or the wave wash is enough to move the boat, and the last two runs through the canal have put me into an anchored ship just past the east bridge. Now that is reality ! :D
