follow the map. (stay on the path)

sounds very zen...I like it

glad you got DW working.

one tip: DW does not play like the PTO. you will not experience the upgrades to better, newer boats as your career progresses. just play one boat until you either perish or get retired. then, go skipper another, different boat. or play another theatre. you can play in the Baltic, the Med, the Black Sea, the Arctic, the North Sea, the Western Approaches, or Mid-Atlantic. that should keep you busy for a day or two.

So I can't 'buy' upgrades with renown points? I just have to start with a boat later in the war that's equipped with radar, fat and lut torpedoes, etc.?

Yes you can buy upgrades with renown points such as new equipments for your actual U-Boat.
But game doesn’t allow to upgrade for later U-Boat unfortunately. That’s the bad side of this game I’m afraid.
So if you start with IIB or VIIB, you’ll have to keep it until the end...
Best is to have more than one career, with different U-Boat types

Hello Gentlemen, sorry for bothering you, and for my bad english, but I have a question:
this mod is great, but some ships' models are, in my opinion, a little bit "old", compared to the submarines, so why don't add any new ships (merchant and warships) and their "mouvments" across the see from other mods? for example various German ships, together with the entire Romanian, Bulgarian, Finnish and Soviet Fleets from "Soviet Waterway" mod, the Italian Fleet from "British Med Campaign" and enlarge the merchant marine with the ships from FotRSUltimate.
I know, for doing this, you have to request them, but why dom't try?

Again: sorry for the bother and my orrible usage of english grammar.

what Fifi said. +1

my apologies for the confusion as i have never considered new(er) equipment as an "upgrade". POV i guess.

It sounds to me like the campaigns are very similar to RFB. You choose a boat and you and the crew grow in experience and talent. That is something I like about RFB.

BTW, just got my first kill off the coast of Ireland. A 6000 ton freighter with a 2200 meter shot. I like the RAOBF. Or as a friend of mine calls it Kaleun Krunch's geheimes Decoderrad

I found a pair of eyes floating in the command room. I put them in the Lucky Bag. No one has claimed them

Do I have something corrupted?
