Default Blockade of Germany. Finally got that freiking carrier!!!!

Hey guys,

For those of you that are still having problems finding the carrier I found her and sunk her. Here are the details

Ship was traveling due East at a slow speed with an escort of 4-5 warships. Snuck in between the battleships and took her out with 4 torps. She would have gone down with 2 but I wanted to make sure she was good and sunk.

Date: Feb 25, 1940
Location: Lat:48.8 N Long: 7.5 W
(On the far east side of the patrol circle)

After a LONG time at sea and trying for the AMC ships (which I still have no clue as to exactly how they look like). I was relocated to the Patrol Circle where I began my patrol, then I did some reading and decided to pay the old boys at Plymouth a visit to see of the carrier was there... She was not. I then did a narrow zigzag pattern from Plymouth to the Patrol Circle and eventually came upon the convoy. I had been searching for three REAL time days on and off the game trying to find this elusive ship so I'm glad I finally got her!!!!!

Hope this helps those that are having problems

Tip! If you are using unlimited fuel and battery life, go at extreme speed "5" so that you can do everything as fast as possible and not get ordered back to base by the BDU before you find the carrier

Thanks for the info! Unless I find her before that, I'll get there that date!

Ironic that it should be so hard to find a sub hunting party...
