Goldenrivet has done one and did a couple of threads about it a while back. Made for some interesting reading. Search for it and you will probably find it.

Thanks shark,and i agree with what you guys said about more crew interaction in the downtime on a patrol,before getting contacts,that would be too cool,if the silent hunter series could have that someday.maybe silent hunter 7 lol...

best one so far is 0% realism...

on a serious note...I use the ol' lay and wait...let them come to you...no sense making a racket trying to catch up...

Lol ORD. Fun place. Best is when you land as an FO and your nose wheel is still in the air but you are handing over control to your Captain already because you are being given rapid and complex taxi instructions from ground LOL... Sorry did not mean to go off topic.

I got to this thread for the same reasons. I am in late 1940, just went from fleet 1 to 2 and doing my first patrol out of Lorient in a type VIIC. My last patrol still around GB resulted in 35k. That is alright. But now I am sent to CF49 I think it is. There is nothing going on there. I am trying fishing on a convoy line that runs South then turns into Gibraltar. Real boring.
