How Depressing...

Tonnage is good. Lots of single merchants to sink. And early in the war (prob 1939 only) not all that hard to get thru esp if you on the surface at flank in the middle of the night (thru dover straights). I go thru the middle pretty much np!:p

Anyone using the English Channel after October 1939 has a death wish. It's too narrow and shallow to escape if you're detected. You don't pay for the gas, so go the long-way round, northabout Scotland. Plenty of "singles" there as well and 1/8th the risk! Plus you might get lucky with a task force including capital ships. You won't find them in the Channel.

No way, under no circumstances I would choose to go through that damned channel with GWX

.
There are plenty of any kind of patrol vesels, mines, etc.

Tried that once. Won't try again.

Yup, take the long way around and survive is what I say too - plenty of tonnage there as well if you know where to look
