[PapaG39]

I'm in the middle of Patrol #10 out of Kiel since installing GWX.
I also did 9 patrols in the standard SH3 & then it transferred me to Brest.

The main differences that I have run across since GWX have been a lot more DD's & Armed Trawlers in GWX. I have mostly kept my distance, but a couple of times they almost got me in that shallow water. It really made for some tense escape manuvering time.
Now I am seeing cargo ships being escorted by a lone trawler & with the rough seas it is almost impossible to hit those little buggers. If you shoot & miss you are surely a dead boat...

After a sinking you had better get away submerged also because aircraft will show up very soon. If they see you then the DD's/Trawlers will arrive shortly thereafter.

It is now August 21st 1940 & I have been informed that Bergen, Norway is now a sub base.
I can't find anything on how to transfer to that base. I don't want to go to Brest after this patrol like I had to do last time. I want to continue on in this career in the North Sea area.

Is there a way to do that instead of shipping to Brest?

I have the Commander thing installed, but haven't figured out how either stay in Kiel or ship to Bergen while keeping my same crew/boat etc...

Of course this is assuming that I make it through this patrol. Right now I have 4 DD's all around me within 10km & a convoy coming up the southern tip of the channel heading east. Things could heat up very fast shortly and the water here is only 17-25m deep...lol..

I may try & just go north on the east shore of England for a couple of squares & see if it is a bit less busy...
