Tirpitz' battlegroup in GWX 1.03

[_Seth_]

I just want to point something out, for the dev's of GWX.. (This is not a complaint, just some info, and maybe a question..:lol:)
For me it looks like the placement of Tirpitz' battlegroup is placed on the wrong location in GWX 1.03. Its actually placed in a fjord called "Malangen", far away from its historical location.
Here is what it looks like using SHIIIgen:

Below is a pic over the actual historical location:

I have "investigated" this using SHIII + GWX 1.03, and "Tirpitz" is actually placed where the first picture shows. I dont remember the date i "was" there, but as far as i know, "Tirpitz" never lay anchored in the Malangen fjord (She laid several places along the Norwegian coast, but not there...). The closest she got to Malangen fjord, was when she was sunk by allied aircrafts at Håkøy November 12, 1944.
My question:
Is it possible to "move" the group to its historical location, or will it be too cramped space to do so,mates?:hmm:

Seth

lol

BBW, stick Tripitz at the location shown in the first pic if you can.

If the "Beast" is there on 12th November '44, will we get to watch the "Dambusters" unleash Tallboys?

Would love to watch that. Those bad boys were huge, though not as big as Grand Slam. Would be cool to see something in game bigger than a torpedo crashing through those decks going supersonic at the point of impact.

No Lancasters in game or Tallboys

Yes air attacks are\were scripted

BBW, Thats AWESOME! Way better than expected! Im pleased with that one, mate! I can see that you have Tirpitz' location outside Haakoy at Tromsø correct, and i also see that you have the battlegroups placement in Alta correct! You even have the names of the German DD's correct!
(Impressed that you managed this, with the cramped space and all!!:o) INCREDIBLE!!!!!!:yep::up::up::up::up: (GWX is my religion, and the dev's are my priests!)

Yes I knew the air attacks were scripted.
Haven't made it to Nov '44 yet to witness them.
Does Tirpitz turn turtle after the attack?

Pity about the Lancs and Tallboys.

Any chance of sailing up the Ruhr in '43 to the Mohne Dam to watch Upkeep in action?:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

[KeptinCranky]

ummm, the actual Ruhr river is like 2 meters deep!?! and you couldn't turn anything bigger than a canoe (not a type II uboat, an actual canoe) around in it without a crane. :D

But it would be quite something to see, maybe surf that wave with your uboat.:hmm:

perhaps sailing up the mississipi a ways to attack oh, I don't know, the port of St. Louis would be more feasible :D
