GWX - Can you refuel at a neutral port ?
 
I know there are milk cows but can you dock at a neutral port and resupply (especially fuel ?)

I don't think so.:nope:

You can only resupply at milk cows or a friendly port.

Happy hunting!:arrgh!:

Beter beware in "friendly" harbors. I drove my VIIB to Cagliari (south of Sardinia, Mediterranean sea) for a little R&R. Problem was, as I reentered the sub, it was in the middle of land, not in water. One dead sub. Quite annoying. I guess I won't
try again docking at harbors without a harbor.

No you can dock and refuel only in allied ports and in neutral ports that have supply ships (i.e. Cadiz and Vigo in Spain)

In fairness the member is relatively new....check your F1 page/link.

Kind of dissapointing if you ask me, but realistic. There are enough allied ships laying around to console that problem, at least.

The resupply ships holed up in spanish ports. It alleviates the fact that you can't refuel from the port itself.

Gotcha. Thought you meant there were German ships-o-plenty in the Atlantic willign to refuel subs. Which was truly not the case. Most of the German merchant fleet at sea at the start of the war willingly interred themselves in neutral countries just to survive.

Hahaha of course that was not the case. But it'd be great if it was :D
