New Patrol Area For Me

Fish40 · 10-27-10, 05:37 PM

It's April/43, and the USS Drum has departed Midway on her third war patrol. Tha patrol area is inside the Sea of Okhotsk. This is a new area for me, and from the looks of the game map, devoid of traffic. I've never been sent to this area, so I don't have the faintest idea of where to start. Mabey the La Peruse Strait? If anyone has patrolled here successfully in the past, I could use some tips. Thanks. Just for the record, RFB and RSRD of course!

Go to the small bay near prot of Rausu. Got my first carrier there playint TMO.
You'll usually run into patrol boats or destroyers near LaPeruesse.

Lot of traffic comes through the La Peruse, more so May of 43, a lot in August of 43, saw a few groups in April. Several large convoys returning from Kiska area

A lot of traffic spawns at Paramushir, near ya, so if you time it right you may get lucky
