If you're after more info, there is a book of the same title by Michael Gannon, just search Amazon using the link at the top right of the page

And it is well worth reading. It's partly an overview of Operation Drumbeat, and partly the story of one particular u-boat that took part in it: U-123, commanded by Reinhard Hardegen, who survived the war and provided Gannon with a wealth of first-hand info and recollections.

It seems to be modelled into GWX. I have received several messages to U-boats participating in Paukenschlag, and they are not "immersion" messages as I have the "lite" package installed to eliminate the ear candy that is irrelevant to my game situation. I'm currently in a VIIC but next time I start a new career in late 41 I will try to get a IX.

Correct....GWX does in fact have Drumbeat elements scripted into it
