Why did the Germans sink my U-boat?

Officially the WW2 started at September 1 04:45 with the start of Operation Fall Weiss. Great Britain enter the war at September 3 11:00 o'clock, France - declare war the very same day but only at 17:00.

The game cannot reproduce events hourly so in game you get everything roughly by 24 hours. In SH3 you become enemy with Poland September 1 midnight sharp, and at September 3 00:00 Britain and France declare war on Germany together the same second..

If you use: "WBNN Mission Orders" mod, best choice to use it with "WBNN Warning Orders (SH3 Cmdr)" you will deffinetly know what's going on in the world by radio messages..
