Default U-boat War Ace (Wolfpack) mod-campaign by Johan Travinski

U-boat War Ace (Wolfpack) mod-campaign by Johan Travinski


What exactly is this Mod?

Does it include I.C. Mod, the H.T. Mod, the Ops Mod?

I'm getting confused now that there are so many reworked RND,LND,SCR Campiagn files that have been redone.

What's the best option to take here?

This is a mod independent on IC, HT or Ops mods. The starting point of the mod was World mod v5.0. The feature of the U-boat War campaign is that it includes many historic operations. See below extracts from Readme for the latest version. Take a look also at this thread http://www.subsim.com/phpBB/viewtopi...263&highlight= for a content description in earlier versions.

Readme

Ports along the Atlantic shore are completely rebuilt. New ports added for: USA, France, Italy, Finland, Sweden, Spain, Portugal, Poland, USSR as well as for some regions: Africa, the Middle East, South America, Madagascar Island. Moreover seaports are enlarged. Anyway it far more simple to name regions without any change: Gulf of Mexico, Indian Ocean, Pacific and, naturally, Antarctica.

CHANGES to the U-Boat War campaign:

- "Norway campaign" 1940 worked out in detail. NOTE: Do not dock at Narvik in April 1940 - April 15 the port will be captured by British expeditionary corps.

- Special attention is paid to the "Battle of Britain" 1940-1942. Luftwaffe air attacks of London and southern UK cities.

- 1939 Polish Campaign added. In particular capture of Gdansk (Danzing) port. Should you start your campaign in 7th and 1st Flotillas, remember that on September 4, 1939 you should you take your position not far from Gdansk (Danzing) harbor.

- The Hunt for "Bismark" reworked. Now British squadrons do not disappear after "Bismark" is sunk. They keep moving and later return to their home ports.

- February 12, 1942 "Scharnhorst", "Gneizenau" and "Prinz Eugen" break through the English Channel from Brest base.

- Mediterranean campaign also changed for the period 1941-1944. Allied forces landing to Sicily detailed. "Husky" operation.

- Convoy traffic is changed and added to the Black Sea region.

- "Overlord" operation and Omaha beach (how could we forget it.

- Bay of Biscay 1943. Now is historically dangerous for German U-boats to cross it on their way from bases to the ocean.

- Air patrols added above waters of Britain, USA, Iceland, Africa and Caribbean Sea.

- Traffic added for: France, Finland, USSR, Netherlands, Sweden, Spain, Portugal, Turkey, Romania, Mexico, Argentina, Columbia, South Africa.

- Some WW2 episodes added: campaigns of German Blockade-breakers: "Pinguin", "Anton", "Kormoran", "Atlantis". Mining of the channel between Greenland and Iceland by German destroyers, accompanied by hostilities with British destroyers performing the same task.

- Night raids of British destroyers in the English Channel, plus there are artillery batteries covering this part of the Channel.

- Due to harbor traffic, which is an easy target, Anti-sub nets and partial mine fields added.

-Silent Hunter III wolfpacks intorduced to the game through mods made by Sergbuto.

This sounds great!
Is it not possible to add or merge this in to Ops mod or IC mod?

Yeah, that sounds good. Would be great if the ops team integrated what they can.
