Hello!

Can somebody create operational (and GWX-compatible) models of the German submarine types

- XXIII: http://www.modellmarine.de/phpwebsite/index.php?module=pagemaster&PAGE_user_op=view_page&PAGE_id=991

Also the midget Submarines of the K-Verband Flotilia (New flotilia for GWX 1.05?)

- 2-man submarine type XXVIIB "Seehund" (seal) - Operational from Jan 1, 1945

- 1-man submarine type "Biber" (Beaver). Operative from June 1944

- 1-man submarine type "Molch" (newt) Operative from Jan 1945

Also interesting: The one-man-torpedoes type Neger/Marder (negro/marten),
perational on D-Day and the Anzio landing in Italy

While the XXIII-boat was an ordinary coastal-u-boat the other types where so called midget-Uboats and part of an special flotilla: The K-Verband.

This would be also an idea for a new late-war-flotilla in GWX.

Thanks for listening,

Christian

Hi Christian,

I've answered most of your questions regarding the GWX-specific developmental approach on the GWX sticky.
