Hey guys,

I just got Silent Hunter III this Christmas, but have only been able to start playing this morning. I started with a type VIIB in 1939, using the GWX(?) pack. For my first sortie of the game, I found a convoy south of Portsmouth and began my attack. I came out of it having sunk a total of 90 000 tonnes, including the battleship HMS Nelson, and 3 Pyro Ammunition Carriers (great explosions). The hardest part was deciding which crew members recieved the assorted 43 medals!

I have played Silent Hunter II, but I've never got anything like that. Is a result like this unusual, or has anyone else ever recieved sunk such a surprising amount?

P.S: Whenever you recieve a mesage containing latitude and longitude coordinates, how does one find this location? I know SH II has a lat,long mous position, but SH II dosent. Could I possibly get some help on that?
