Well I said there'd be more questions, so with the crew management mod we can no longer use the type XXI at all ? never ?

What happened when you tried to use the XXI?

Haven't yet, the documentation says that the crew mgmt mod has not been configured for the type XXI, don't use it.

Ahh, yeah I just tried a patrol with a XXI.. it was.. deadly.

Jan 45, right through the English Channel! Was going ok till south of Dover when I hit a mine. For somereason, even with a mostly rested crew my engines wouldn't work. Granted I was at a 15% battery, but still.

Finally ended up coming to rest ON another mine, kissed it a few times actually, but stopped right under it. Couldn't do much.

Got 5 destroyers on me, depth bombing, but I was on the bottom 37m and they weren't really hitting me.

I was able to reload a last torpedo and blind fire it.. SUNK A TRIBAL!! One shot.. blind.. 37m down! I RULE!

Finally grew bored and dumped all my air into surfacing. Made a run for it on diesels.. that went.. badly.

So yeah, there does appear to be a lot of little issues with the XXI.

NYGM did nothing for the XXI mainly as the effort to reward was not there especially in the historical context.

In fact, we basterised a part from the XXI to make the NYGM Anti Humming Bird Mod
