it is a cool addition, though the brit and american subs have been around GWX for quite some time.

i dont recall which version they were added but im pretty sure they were in pre 2.1

awesome screenie though

Thx GR

this is in mid 1940 and a lg convoy. and the sub WILL shoot at you.

At the tail end of the convoy is a H\K group.

lol, gratz. I spotted an S Class at the tail end of a good-sized convoy last patrol, ended up expending two torpedoes on it, both of which missed as it zig-zagged.

Shouldnt be any HK groups in 40
What does this group comprise of ?
Wild guess that its either the escorts - convoy had an AI sub or 2 that they have sank and are still adrift of the convoy
Or
Its a TF which by lucky chance is on the same route

Later on in the war HK groups do sail some hours behind a convoy and so some hours in front of the next
As they did
But not in 40

@BBW I got some stuff mixed up. Sorry all.

In single mission HX228 (GWX) 1943 Small carrier and destroyers follow convoy. And planes attack you.

And sub is in last row of convoy.

Ah
lol
That sounds about right

Ahhh yes those Tommy T classes. I had one lined up at the tail end of a convoy once recently. Was close too, something like 300\350 meters. I let off an eel and he just accelerated like nowbodys buisiness. So I fired a second with the same results. So how did you do it FIREWALL?

I've GOT to ask...
what is that pyramid-wireframe-looking thing just aft of the conning tower?

={FH}=Paddy · 02-06-09, 05:24 AM

@ Kenijaru: To the best of my knowledge it is a "DF Coil" receiver.
