Silent Hunter 5 Mare Nostrum: Where in the hell is Force H and A?

[gunther_prien]

Greetings fellow subsim geeks,

I need some help with the Mare Nostrum objectives. I am currently at October of 1941 and have completed some but not all of the objectives. I was never able to locate any of the battleships from force H and so I failed to accomplish that objective. I spent so much damn time patrolling the Force H area and saw nothing but Kent class cruisers, other cruisers, and destroyers. I got lucky and sunk the two aircraft carriers supplying Malta early in the campaign. When I was trying to complete the Siege of Tobruk objective I came upon a battleship just off of Alexandria and I assumed it was from Force A. I sunk it and discovered it was the "Royal Sovereign." I was happy because I thought it would give me some credit toward the Force A battleship objective but it did not. It still shows that I have two battleships to sink and I really need to accomplish this part of the campaign so that I can move on to the next one. Where are the battleships for Force A? I have tried to look at the other threads on this subject but they were not helpful, as the pictures of map locations have expired. Please help!!

It's been awhile: The force H battleship will be a Renown class battlecruiser off the Spanish East coast inboard of the Baleares- course NNE. The the other BB"s will be out of Alexandria on a northerly course; as I recollect, there was a intel radio intercept for that one and one was an Elizabeth class BB and the other Royal Sovereign. Keep your sonar man's moral up(with 'special meals) and his hidden skill abilities to help find these squadrons and pay attn. to the knots/speed they R travelling as that sometime gives away what vessels are in a squadron. saving a fruitless pursuit. Refit at any German held N. African port to stay stocked up on 'eels', so as not to lose precious time with a full base refit. Those 2 objectives take awhile. The circles were not where I found them.
