Anyone ever make it into London?
 
So far each time I've had a lot of ships and convoys well protects on the way in there... Going to try and sneak in without putting my hand int he cookie jar.. Anyone successfully attack the London Harbor and get out alive?

Sunk 10 out of the 24 .. damn out of ammo one of them actually had some long range cannon on it! When I got close to a destroyer (its feb) I could see ice all over the ship! How realistic!! Nice touch.

In RL The Rivers Thames is about 6 to 7 meters deep..... no way for a U-boat make it though those waters.

I actually did sail into London and it had probably half a dozen escorts guarding it. This was on a return trip from the Total Germany campaign and I was returning back through the Straight of Dover to refit for the 100k Tonnage mission when I thought it'd be fun to see what London looked like. So I saved and spent the next 30 minutes weaving my way up the Thames. Sadly, I was expecting a rendered London like NYC but it was just another port town. No landmarks, no parliament, Big Ben, or London Bridge, just factories and some houses.
