Stock SH3- any reason to enter the Black Sea?
 

The museum shows Romanian units, so is there anything going on in the Black Sea? Can I take a Type VII from Salamis through the Turkish Straits?

Hi Karl, welcome to subsim :salute:
To be honest I have no idea what's going on in the Black Sea. But I can't help notice you said stock... do you know about the super mods? GWX for example, is a free simple download and install and improves the game tenfold! Highly recommended.
Just mentioning it to you in case you didn't know.

My reason is because I grew up on the Black Sea coast. But in my NYGM installation, nothing is happen there.
GWX3 have Black Sea campaign, and for GWX3 have this: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=172997

Does it work with Steam downloads? I was under the impression it didn't.

I remember someone wrote that the Black Sea campaign is boring. Basically the same type of small convoy of a few ships intercepted time after time at the same location.

Dunno about that, but a quick Google search is showing me yes it does.

Hi mate,


in real life there were only Type 2 U-Boats in the black sea in WW2. I think there were only 6 of them, which the germans had transported there in parts by train. :yep:
Maybe that helps you make your decision. I do not know though, how it is modelled in stock game, or the modded campaigns/missions by GWX.

THERE WERE 3 ,ROMANIAN MADE SUBS. AFTER ITALY ****ED UP ANOTHER 6 ITALIAN MADE SUBS TRANSFERED TO ROMANIAN NAVY.

welcome aboard!
 

GWX works with steam edition. That's what I run. I have done the Black Sea campaign, but spent weeks in game just trying to find a single merchant. May have been a glitch, but never found anything out there after an in game month of patrolling. I did use my 20mm deck gun to "attack" a port. :doh:
