Thats another nice thing about using the IIA-- it usualy is in early 39' & 40' so it's a little easier to remain undetected. I had stirred up a hornet's nest after taking out the Nelson w/ 7 destroyers hunting & pinging me but due to the thankfully stormy whether snuck away without 1 detection. At least the Narvik mission could be considered realalisticly possible--I think I recall reading that BDU did assign some of the coastal boats for the Nowway invasion.

From Mikayl it sounds like getting past the rock with the canoe is possible--wish the game modeled a strong current there so one could just float through underneath w/ the currents like Werner described in his book. The Suez might be another story but maybe the boys will be up to it:hmm: .


On a related matter--does anyone know if there are any skins out there for the IIA that covers up the pre-war (red&white) "sunk" buoy on the IIA or is that more of a 3d model thing. Due to that--thats' why I like to use the red hull skin--just figuring it was a pre-war boat that the shipyards forgot.
