Why do I keep dying in Grey Wolves???

I've run 4 patrols in TGW and have died on all 4 within 100 miles of the harbor AT THE START OF THE PATROL! I've had collisions when there are no ships any where near me, hit mines, but they are not on the charts. And flooded twice for no apparent reason.

TGW has gone on my sh!t list untill someone can tell me either what I'm doing wrong, or what the deal is with this mod. I've had no such problems with NYGM or the stock game.

On another note: I got SH3 Commander to work with the NYGM Mod, but the Commander declaried me dead when I docked the boat after my patrol.

Is there something I'm missing here?

Anti-submarine nets and uncharted mine-fields. That sounds likely to me.

It's cheating, but if you open up Campaign_Scr.mis in your Data/Campaigns/Campaign folder with your editor, it shows you all mine-fields in the game.

In the upper left corner of the Nav map (F5 key) is a chart showing mines and subnets at the entrance of friendly harbors.

GW provides an escort ship for you to follow out of harbor, he will guide you on a safe course.

That's what happens when you put a sargent to command a boat
