Ok, sorry but I am still not understanding this. Let's say I am at sea on Patrol #10 and I'm based at Kiel. I am thinking that I would like to upgrade to a IXC after this patrol and transfer to the 2nd flotilla in Lorient, so... I am assuming that I would return to Kiel upon completion of my 10th patrol.... once I am back in Kiel, I assign medals to my crew, etc, etc... then I request a transfer to the 2nd flotilla in Lorient and my request is accepted. NOW... do I have to put to sea on my 11th patrol FROM KIEL, go patrol whatever grid they assign me, and THEN head to Lorient? OR will I automatically be transfered with my boat to Lorient? (teleported as someone said earlier, or in RL like I took the train across France).? OR do I begin my 11th patrol, complete it, head to Lorient and THEN request transfer to the 2nd? Sorry this is so complicated. Perhaps someone who understands this and can simply explain it could let us know what order we need to do thing... thanks!
sorry that I am not getting this Kaluens...
