NYGM has a playable Type XXIII? I may have to change my plans.

According to the NYGM 3.0 release thread:
Quote:
New Features (just a reminder of what I copied earlier):

1. The new Type XXIII boat.
2. The Real Weather Fix.
3. Racerboy's exhaust smoke for all U-boats. (Used with permission.)
4. Iambecomelife's new merchant fleet, incorporated into convoys.
5. Key changes made to stop the way in which a U-boat could pass into a convoy from the front, at periscope depth, without ever being detected by the front escort. You will have to be much more careful now.
6. Schnorchelling improved, so that the crew doesn't die of exhaustion in stormy weather. (This is much more complicated than it sounds.)
7. 'Bold' asdic decoy made much more realistic with new, unpublished, research.
8. More realistic battery ranges underwater.
9. SH3Patrol program updated with new patrol grids for the Type XXIII boat. (Also other changes.)
10. New updates for NYGM for those who use SH3Commander.
11. The east-coast minefield mod included, marks the giant British east-coast minefields on your map.
Then again I guess it doesn't actually say if it's playable... Will have to do a search...

I beleive that there is a way to get the playable XXIII into GWX 3.0. But yes the NGYM XXIII is playable from what I have read.

VIIC because it's just the classic U-Boat that everyone relates to when thinking about German subs prowling the Atlantic

I only have any experience in a VIIB so far.

Although... I just started a new career in a IIA and decided to raid Hartpool at the outbreak of the war. Sunk 2 troop transports for +48K patrol. Snuck out nice and quiet without so much as a single ping.

So now I'm thinking I should have a new fav...
