Harbor attacks in GWX 1.03

codmander · 04-30-07, 12:42 PM

strictly a deep water subsimer any water less than 100 meters I have learned to stay clear of

Umfuld · 04-30-07, 12:51 PM

Me too. There doesn't seem to be a lack of good targets in deep waters. Just figured if it's doable, I should do it sometime.

Stay out of the harbours for obvious reasons

I find it kinda telling that nobody else tried it after Prien :hmm:

I've made a few harbour raids in GWX 1.03 and as long as you abide by what's in my harbour infilktration tutorial you should be OK.

No gurantees though if you aren't careful you can get very dead very quickly. It does take some planning and I usually visit the habour once or twice and do a recce before going in.

Tobruk was fun one night where I managed to sink everything in the harbour using torps and gun, including the patroling DD and corvette outside.

I haven't come accross mines, but I've discovered that in order to get past nets I order rig for silent when I come near the harbors so I juuuust tap the net, then surface for just enough time to get over the net, then back to PD. Doesn't get much easier, and if there are no warships near by, I resurface inside the harbor and pound away with deck gun and torpedoes alike.

then passing a sub net whitout any dammage and going back to PD.
thinking i was safe i struck another subnet

(luckaly at 1 knot) passed it and torpedoed the patrolling trawler. reaching the harbour i torpedoed a nelson,fiji and a hunt I destroyer. out of torpedo's i returned surfaced and made it back home

The info in SH3 Gen is not obligatory. Were you to follow this every time you would spend your career carrying out harbour raids....and how realistic would that be ? :hmm:

FYI, I use use SH3 Gen myself and rate it highly but I seldom if ever carry out it's recommendation

Kaleu. Jochen Mohr · 05-03-07, 08:36 AM

SH3gen isnt realy correct...

chased a iceberg when i used it... never found it

Jimbuna · 05-03-07, 10:37 AM

Perhaps it melted before you got to its location
