I'm UK too!:up:

In fact, I am only 25 minutes drive from Blackpool!
One of the very first things I ever did in SH3 was to check out my "home" area, and I was a tad disappointed to see NO Blackpool, NO Preston, and an unrecogniseable Liverpool!

However....that was "vanilla" SH3 a couple of years ago. Since I discovered NYGM and GW, then finally GWX.....I found that there is so much more to SH3 that missing bits of my local coast have become irrelevant!

I still enjoy sinking convoys around Liverpool Bay when not on an "official" Patrol!:lol:

Cheers
Dave

Hope not- I hate blackpool, :nope: its like a crap Las vegas full of chavs.
Nothing to do their either unless you like slot machines and bingo.
I hope that if blackpool does get modelled I can sink the whole damn town with a spread of torpeedos. Only then will I go there!
I wish someone whould make an actual port at Lerwick instead :rock:

That's probably what happened with the U534 last seen in Birkenhead Docks propped up on two piles of railway sleepers.

Only differance there was the museum was nicked and the sub left!

The U534, which is the only German U-boat to have been raised from the sea-bed, is owned by Danish company Den Bla Avis, and, unless a new home can be found, it will be returned to its owner in Denmark.
