SH3 Commander-Cannot use VIIB 1939

[JHuschke]

I have used the VIIB in August/September, 1939 1st Flotilla before but this time it won't let me. How do I fix this?

[superfecta]

If I remember.... I think you have to pick the 7th flotilla, complete a patrol, then see if you can transfer to the 1st.

You could never have a VIIB in 1939 with 1st Flotilla using Commander that I remember. IIA only. For the VII you always had to take 2nd or 7th Flotilla.

If u uncheckmark "historic u-boat availability" in sh3com u can choose the VIIb with 1st flotilla as well

[Sailor Steve]

Ah. Never saw a reason to do that, so I guess I missed it.

Me neither. In the GWX manual it is recommended to use this option if using sh3com. I stumbled only over it by creating a quick test installation.
