Hello Letum . Well you know, i am having trouble trying to figure out how to hit anything . There is nothing showing up on the map only the large square for convoys . The only thing i have is my hydrophone and my eyes . I headed off from wilhelmshaven and after about a week a convoy report and approx location and heading was on my map . I plotted a course and intercepted the convoy in 15m/s winds and medium fog . Lo and behold there in front of me in the medium fog was some large cargos and something in the distant fog with twin stacks . No time to do any calculations just head straigt for it and try to set up some sort of 4 fan shot when i got close . LOS , torpedo 1,2,3,4 . Two torps hit and went down pretty quick but not a huge explosion . More like multiple explosions . I dived and went deep and silent . While diving i heard from my hydrophone man that we hit another ship . It turned out that one of the other torps from my fan shot hit a large cargo . After escaping i stayed around the same grid and soon enough another convoy was reported to me . Well two more large cargos sunk . I am sorry i cannot confirm the location as i have strict orders not to tell . Sober out.

Im doing my first patrol (Med) with the Tonnage Mod and its great!

When it says no map update, it means NO MAP UPDATE!

I got a report of a small enemy convoy in CH75. I did a search and found only two tramp steamers. Later I sank a large merchant but now getting belted by two DD escorts who are pissed off at me.

This is what the game should have been in the first place.

Is there a simulated Breakout of the med?? When does it take place? mid 43 right? That sounds really exciting, every1 in full retreat including uboats. I wanna play that.. I think when i get home imma reinstall everything freshly and start a med career mid 1942.

On my first patrol I sank a large tanker , took 5 fish to finish her off , on prematured and two ran under her, sank small coastal with what I consider to be the strangest shot ever , set the fish to run at 8m and fired from 179deg astern { had already pummled the ship with deck gun } and the torp ran true..but it hit the rudder , dropped down about 2m and continued to run under the ship and took her out { watched all this through the pop up window }
Finished my patrol by taking out a large cargo, two fish ran deep { didn't notice that the ship was sitting high in the water } so I used 115 deck gun shells over two hours to sink her. sailed back into port with a mere 19550t of merchant shipping...now for some fun , second patrol starting Feb 41....

Go Sober! What was the Warship/s?

602Sqn_Puff, great tonnage. So BDU has decided to overlook your '179deg astern' shot :rotfl:
