Yup, I got two of mine north of Scotland, but the other 3 I got right here.

Come to think of it, the one I did find and sink was just north of Scotland, was early on a day after I sank the merchant. Then I headed northwesterly and got into even rougher seas.
Then BDU repositioned me even further north, what do they know though.
Seas are getting less rough the further south I go, that'll help if it holds.

Well we be headed back south now, about 24hrs away. I bet I can catch them out farther in deeper water, that was where I found the other one.

kylania, were the 3 AMCs you have marked in that screenie just sitting there close together like they were moored?

For me, they were. I got in there with 4-5 DDs patrolling the harbor. For some reason they wouldn't attack, so I just ran in on the surface, fired all my loaded torpedoes which sunk two, and I shelled the other. Only the AMCs put up a fight, and that only with small arms fire. The DDs spotlighted me, but refused to engage.

Weird AI in this game.

Yeah, some tankers were there too.

I didn't run in on the surface, I squeezed in through 15-18m of water at 1kt the whole way in! I didn't attack them while they were moored though, some people said that was not counting. I attacked them as they left, where my u-boat is in that picture.

So how long did you have to sit there for them to move?! I have been at the mouth of the harbor (about 13km away from your pos on the map) for THREE days watching 3 moored AMCs and a tanker (as well as 5 DD's ...4 which are sitting still around different points of the harbor, and 1 patroling just at the mouth)???

I R E A L L Y hate these "missions"......

Anyone know?? Anyone ever wait for them to get "underway"? Or will it count if I torpedo them as they are stationary?

I answered your post in the "fuel problems" thread.

Basically you do NOT have to complete Blockade of Germany to move on to Norway. Now I do know you have to complete the mission leading up to Operation Drumbeat if you want to take that mission. But that is much later in the campaign.
