Default How...?

WARNING!!! - possible newbie question

When (or how) do the base ports change from e.g. Kiel to Lorient etc.? I play GW campaign, it is August 1940, the France has just surrendered and I still have to get back to Kiel! :/ Am I doing sth. wrong?

The bases change mid june 1940
You can always try the phone on the desk and apply for a transfer - providing you have done 3 patrols in your current flotilla

You mean they change automatically??? :/ I start my current patrol in August 1940 and I still need to get back to Kiel...

Bestdes, the transfer options are quite minor - I'm in 7th Flotilla so I can only get to 1st or 2nd... It doesn't even say what their home ports are! ((

Yes they do change automatically.

Even after France fell... it did take some time to set up the U-boat bases... and to build the pens etc etc.

IIRC the 2nd goes to Lorient
the 1st to Brest and the 7th to St Nazaire

They change automatically and you will be notified when your base has changed with a message on your screen.
