Bay of Biscay
 
Is this area an important target area in the summer of 1944?

It's an area where you are very likely to be a target in 1944 given the aerial coverage. I don't know if you'll find many Allied targets there. Maybe hunter-killer groups that you'd be better off avoiding.

What about DH83?

Is the D-Day landing fleet visible and sinkable in SH? Where's the best place to be after 1943? (And don't say in Port :haha:)

I believe it's modded in GWX. But they had to keep it a fraction of the size of the actual 5,000 ship invasion fleet....or it'd crash or freeze most systems.:cool:

Oh cool, thanks for that.
I suppose you can't get them anyway, it's suicide trying to run the channel. Almost as bad as Gibraltar.



I wonder if anyone has ever gotten through Gibraltar unscathed... For another thread I think...

I can be done---I recall doing it a few times---but the earlier in the war the better.
