ah, depends on what sub you're on, if you're in a type II don't even bother, i dont think the AA gun on the deck can sink anything.

But no, don't go unless you want to duke it out with the destroyers.

I have used the AA gun on a Type IIa (GWX 3.0) to take out Patrol Boats (don't recommend that one as you *will* take damage) and merchants. I've used it to take out a Tramp Steamer and one or two other types...maybe a Medium Cargo but don't recall. It took some time but it worked (and not even a torpedo hit first). I don't know if it was the upper hits (explosions) or the waterline hull hits (flooding) that did the trick because I wound up with a mix of both.

I've wondered about the ports. In 1939, what other ports can be accessed other than Kiel? I see other Blue names on the shoreline like Cuxhaven, Wilhelmshaven and something-munde....etc. Are any of these ports where you can dock and resupply? The ships and their schedules can be found in the F1 menu, but not ports.

Go home. Drink heavily. Visit a brothel. Get an upgrade.

You have earned it.

Good Hunting

I sank over 19,000 tons of shipping with my 88 two patrols ago. I say make up your mind about a resupply or heading for home, and gun down whatever merchants you see on the way!

Head for home and only shell lone ships you might encounter during the trip (provided it is early in the war).
