I also started at Manila (running 1.5 vanilla w/RSRDC). I started in an S-boat, then got a Porpoise class when I was at Perth. In the middle of a patrol I got flash traffic telling all Porpoise boats to go to Midway, so I went there and got my Gato. I've been based at Midway ever since.
If you're going to Japan you have to watch your fuel. But if you're going to the East Indies you can always top off your tanks at Darwin anytime in the patrol.
