Congrats on your first x1 TC patrol.


FYI - Can you reduce the size of your image, 2.3mb is rather big.

Congrats! My crew did not all get medals either after the first patrol. I got like 26 of the war patrol medals. Anyway, good job. Currently my game play has been 1X because with GWX I just cannot blast around anymore like a Banshi. Heck, most times I have to stay on the conning tower with the watch because they are missing ships. I'm seeing them with my binoculars before they are. I have a full green bar with my watch to boot. Not to mention my sonar man is partially deaf so I have to work that station every now and then. Second war patrol so I'm building up experience!

Still playing patched Vanilla

Congrats on your patrol!! I find myself manning the hydrophones on a regular basis. Even though I keep 2 qual'd operators on watch, they can not hear ships that are stationary although their engineering noise blows my headphones off.. I picked up (and sank) 2 C2's that were riding out a storm. They were drifting at 1 kt. and except for the 9' swells, they were easy picking once I found them..

Great job, those screen shots are fantastic!!

Oh, by the way Codmander. Did you take the boat all the way in? After my first patrol in GWX I had the highest tonnage ever and wanted to feel the fanfare after a great patrol so I took the boat all the way to the moorings and the nurses

More and more I'm looking hard at playing 1x soley. With GWX it just makes more sense as I play the game. Currently I do not go above 32X but I find my men are missing things. As it stands now I might be able to do a complete 1x patrol in about a month.
