Type II makes it

kiel-canal-AN14 @ 1/3rd speed surfaced
patrol AN14 mostly creeping submerged for 4-6 days
and back to kiel at 1/3rd

:D (I tried, and even entered Scapa Flow that way)

If you want refueling operations, then you are better of with SH3commander and after entering cuxhaven you make sure, that the patrol grid is set back to the original setting of your patrol via SH3commander and that you are only spending 1 day in harbor

I am sure the IID is a better choice for those who like the Einbaum.

I have terrible luck with II types

I was doing a career in and ixb and had done about 32 patrols not a single ship the whole time.

I started a new career in a IIA on the first patrol I find a huge convoy with 12 troop transports and 6 or 7 destroyers ( one of which was blown in half by british airplanes RIGHT BESIDE MY SUB!!!!! it damaged me pretty badly so I had to sit there and repair for a half hour during which the convoy got away and I never saw it again.:damn:
