Another thing - when silent running, change the telegraph to the pitometer display and select 1kt manually as your speed....that will ensure you are travelling as quietly as possible.

As for the rest....there's a reason it's called the ENGLISH channel!!!

W00T? Did you forget to upgrade your sub with the brandnew hamster mod? It adds 1000 hamsters with their wheels connected to the battery to replenish battery charge during long DC hunts.
But be sure to apply oil to the hamster wheels before rigging for silent running!

I play 94% realism with GW 1.1a and NYGM and have very little problem making the channel in the early part of the war, just travel submerged during daylight and surface at night.

After 1939 the channel will have mines and subnets which makes it extremely more difficult but easily done by zooming your map all the way in to see the deep areas through the channel and plot a course through those areas.

They're recalling that upgrade, until they find a way to fix the rapid-oxygen-depletion problem. And the rapid-food-depletion problem. And the stinky-mess-cleanup problem.

I couldn't upgrade to the Hamstermobile. I was thinking of taking the Gerbilmatic out of an old Yugo and installing it, but they tend to eat your Captain's Log with your record of sinkings if you install them before your first patrol. I guess they don't like the change of scenery.

Put the "Hamster Song" in your gramophone.
Doo Doo Dooo Deee DOOO.

I spared you from a link the song will drive you to madness:|\\:huh:
