What part of Southeast Asia are you from?

I couldn't agree more with you mate. I have hardly ever ventured out of my country but thanks to the internet I know quite a lot of people from different parts of the world - places that I probably would never have the chance to visit. It is amazing.

I'm from India. A big a@# country trying to catch up with the world lol.

As i dont feel like evading the oncomeing P/Oed DDs, i hit escape, and "Return to Base"....But, still foolish me has not even looked, and it said "Dock at Scapa Flow". I dock, and as i set out, THE BRITS PUT MY UBOAT ON SHORE! Well thats one promient looking carrer down the drain.


But yes, august 3rdyou should receive a message stateing "We are at war!" or something like that.

that was a good one mate. I just received my orders yesterday and I am currently waiting off the coast of Brighton to send some poor merchants to the depths. Patience... Btw, I got a load of messages about Prize Regulations or something, what to sink without warning and all that. Couldn't make much sense out of it. Question is, am I or am I not allowed to shoot Any ships flying the British flag - merchants, trawlers, troopships, and whatnot?

Just the other day I got my hands on a copy of Silent Hunter 3 with the Grey Wolves 3 mod. I had always wanted to command my own U boat through the story seas of the far north and this was like my dream come true

After visiting this forum I installed the Commander mod and I am completely head over heels in love with this game. I just love standing on the bridge at 3.40 in the morning, listening to the waves crashing against my boat and the thunderstorm is just lovely.

I have some issues though which is why I need professional help from you veterans. I finished my first petrol in the 13th flotilla, sunk 5 merchant vessels and when I get back to port I find my renown is negative!? I am absolutely sure that I sunk all the ships flying the British flag, so what did I do wrong? Btw I'm playing with 47% realism. Also, when I came to my home port my boat was fired upon by Kriegsmarine ships in and around the port. What on earth!? I had to dive and get to port submerged after my boat was heavily damaged. Please enlighten me guys.

I have started a new career with the 2nd flotilla. The date is 5th August, 1939. I know that England declared war on Germany in september (I think). So, technically in august we are still not enemies. Perhaps my attacking and sinking english ships before the war has even started affected my renown? Just a thought..

i think if you sink too many friendlies you get classed as "rouge" and everything will try 2 kill you... im noob too but not quite as noob as you lol... i have only been playing about 4 months.

You will receive a radio message informing you of the commencement of hostilities.

If you attack a neutral, every ship of that country will consider you an enemy for the following 24 hours.

Seeing as how every ship is a neutral prior to the commencement of hostilities, an attack on ANYTHING before then will mean the whole world consider you an enemy for the following 24 hours.

Bwa, ha ha. What a homecoming!

Welcome to the GWX world.
