Docking and Resupply

Jazer · 12-19-06, 08:23 PM

I would like some help on resupply please. I play GWX. I was a week or so out of wilhelmshaven when I happened upon a fat convoy. I sank about 30000 tons and spent all but one fish. Now, for the question part. I was under the impression that one could dock at a friendly base to refuel and restock torps to continue ones mission to their patrol zone fully reloaded? I stopped off at a Spanish port (forget the name) and all it would let me do is return to base and end the patrol. Am I missing something? Please Help!

You can only do that if the neutral port has a german resupply sub there. When you look at the Nav Map close enough, you'll see where they are. Of course later in the war, there are few to find.

I'm in 1939. Are they there that early? Because I never noticed them before. What do they look like on the Nav Map? I'm sorry, I'm just really confused. Also, can you stop at any German port other than home base to resupply?

There are none in 1939. Two will become available in January of 1940.

Look at your resupply info by clicking F1 and you will see all and when. There will also be some Milk Cows available in 1942 as well.

Thank you so much; I understand now. So, basically I have to end my patrol after using all the fish until resupply ships become available?

Using up your fish is irrelevent. You wouldn't necessarily have to end a patrol if the dates become available while you were out to sea. When you get to those dates in time, they will automatically become available in the game.
