Arctic convoy mission again...... Cracked the hard sounding parts of this mission relatively easily but struggling like hell to find the 2 aircraft carriers and two battleships. Does anyone have any idea where they are?? Been sailing for two months nearly and I am having to avoid convoys to conserve eel's.

I'm having the same problem, I found one battleship NW of Iceland but that was 3 months ago. I keep stumbling across Cruiser battle groups and destroyer groups, but NO carriers or battleships. If YOU find any let me know :wah:

I found one east of Scapa Flow, port on the north part of the British island. Was headed to port it looked like, counted as well. Still in search of 1 more BS and 2 Carriers though.

I kept patroling within 108Km of my last assign patrol area and found 1 crarrier basttle group and 1 battleship battle group.
Still camping same patrol area. Down to 4 Torpedo's. 2 x Fore and 2 x Aft. Refir seems to be a waste of time. Appears it may be better to RTB and get the mission again.

Ahoy, I have the same problem... I've sunk carriers almost immediately (just stay in patrol area and follow aircrafts, which are too far to start from airports), but i can not find those goddamn battleships. Can anyone help? In best case time and coordinates of patrol or battleship ;) Thanks a lot, I've spent too many evening looking at battleships (now I almost dream about them :zzz: )

or you can click on the names of the ports to see what carriers are based there and wait outside for when they return.

Thanks DavyJones, I've never noticed that :o (I noticed it just at airports) But in Scapa Flow was just HMS Archer (another Aircraft Carrier). I sank it to make englishmen angry, but of course, nothing else happened. I'll try to wait for the BS somewhere nearby. Thanks a lot for now ;)

No problem :)

Like a few others I have found some battleships & heavy cruisers,all flying the Stars & Stripes,the target lines(Red for allies,Blue for Axis & Green for Neutral) the American ships are green for Neutral,how can this be when America entered the war in 1941 and I sank the warships in 1942,plus the tonnage bar did not fill up recording that I had sank the ships.
Has anybody found the battleships & aircraft carrier? if you have,where & when did you get them?
