Getting ready to start my 5th patrol and got orders to grid AN36 . haven't been up that way at all ( from Wilhelmshaven ). So far all my patrols end up taken me to either the AM , BE or BF grids in the Atlantic . Just for a heads-up , whats the main action I should expect ? Convoys , Task Forces , Loaners , Large Merchants , Tankers , D- all the above ? This info will help me determine my load out . Thanx

Did you start your career in 1939? If no then what year is it for your captain?

i'm playing feb 1940, i'm on my 4th patrol in U-36 and my last 2 patrols were both north atlantic convoy routes.
all i've got were single ships tootling along. hell i went into lock ewe and found 1 t2 tanker (and a hell of alot of destroyers!) but not seen a convoy yet.
i have 3 torps left in my bow tubes and i reckon i'll prolly trip accross one any day now

some people seem to only get convoys, others just singles. all depends what year your running.

A lot depends on the date. Without looking at the chart, I guess ,the Norwegian campaign could play a role

You may find all sorts of traffic from task forces to convoy, to lots of British and friendly aircraft. Be careful not to sink our ships.
