What's that base ...

robj250 · 03-30-07, 07:18 PM

above Bear Island?

Is it an enemy base?

Are there ships there?

I'm finishing off the war using SH3. It is November 29, 1944. and I'm up that way and wondered if it was worthwhile going to that base. I have 4 + 2 torpedoes torpedoes left and want to sink some merchants before I return to Bergen.

Hi BBW.

You ever been in there?

Has anyone ever been in there.

I am up that way near Narvik in Nov 29, 44.

Have I got a change that there might be a couple juicy merchants in there?

How about DD cover in there?

How deep is it getting in there?

hmm, a lot of questions. Can anyone answer them?

IIRC there is nothing there in stock SHIII

I added Longyearby for a particular historic mission
Unless you refer to another base

You sure you are using stock as Bear Island isnt even marked in stock IIRC ?

Stock

I go in there all of the time, no buddy guarding this port and you can get 30,000 tons easy. Just dont surface the merchants have guns.

Hi Chuck.

Rob

No patrols? Sounds like the cowardly Kaelun Crazy Ian may be paying this port a visit on more than one occassion...

Well, when I reloaded the game (SH3) and tried to go there, the base wasn't there.

Damned.

So I went and finished my patrol by returning to base.

Think I'll go too but take thermals and a flask; looks like a cold place [shivering smiley here]

Where is North Cape? There's a convoy reported there.

Additional:

I found it. It's in Norway. I'm just going to have to buy my a Atlas Book.
