Yeah, that was my first patrol in GWX... wanted to try something different.
I found that (for me) the black sea was like a port raiding tutorial.
Likes:
New playground
The deep-water ports give you a lot of room to maneuver
Good size area for the Type II boats
Dislikes:
The Russians seemed retarded at times... The easiest way to avoid a DC attack was to be detected and let the DD run right over top of you. Then they launch DC's to the left and right, but don't roll anything off the back. You can just sit still and the DC's will detonate harmlessly to the left and right.
I didn't find too much convoy traffic, it was easier to wander into the ports and sink stationary whalers.
Overall, just not as satisfying as sinking British and US ships.
You kinda get this feeling like you must've been a reject or something to be stuck in such a place.
