Default rearming question

I am sure you guys can answer this. Am running gwx 3. It is Oct. 1939. Am at grid BE 99 with 2 torpedoes left. Are there any neutral ports that i can stop and reload at? Thank you.

When you stop at a neutral port it ends your current patrol, reloads your torpedoes, fills you up with fuel, repairs any damage at a cost of one day for each percent of hull integrity lost. It does not assign you a new patrol zone.

No, you have to go to a German (blue) port. This could be a supply ship in a neutral (green) port, such as the Corrientes at Las Palma, but it must be a "blue" port.

I haven't tested it, but the idea of neutral ports giving you torpedoes just made me chuckle.

"Hello, welcome to U-Boat King! How may I help you?"
"Hallo! Ve vould like to order ten torpedos, two hundred shells for ze 88mm gun and 500 liters of ze diesel, bitte!"
"OK, anything else?"
"Ja! Also fries with salt and tomato sauce!"
"Fries with salt and tomato sauce coming right up. That's be 1000."
"Zere"
"Thanks for visiting the U-Boat King, have a nice war!"
"Danke!"

Yes, always head for the 'blue' symbol on your map.

Really, now, that scenario is completely unrealistic. They didn't even ask if you wanted to supersize your order.

At least they didn't tell you to go 'park' in the corner while they get your order ready.
