Some thoughts and questions about Campaign start in WAC5.01:

It's a good idea to implement a 'shooting exercice' region to start your first patrol, but you don't get any messages (radio messages?) when the war breaks out (attack of Poland at 1 August 1939, if I'm right).
Usually you get back to Kiel at 5 August 1939 or so and stay for 20+ days in the port. Isn't it so that when you start the campaign in this way you will also miss some real historical war encounters against polish or english warships or convoys? I did my first patrol with a Type II boat in the 1. Flotilla from Kiel to patrol AF83, I never had the impression to be at war, all targets were green and neutral well after August 1.

The type VIIB submarine is my all-time favourite. One reason of course is, that Kptlt. Prien and Kptlt. Endrass executed their greatest coups in these trusty boats. And for that reason, I would like to ask if it would be possible to let the player choose a mid-war conning tower with wave breaker for the type VIIB, but without that second flak emplacement aft of the CT.
(Their slender conning-towers make them look almost elegant dont you think?)

I know that these are available but I was referring to the version that can be seen in the photo in my post wich, in the game, sadly is only available with said second flak emplacement aft of the CT.

The war didn't start until September 1st 1939. That's why everything is still neutral or friendly in August.

Ohhh my... That's why, yes of course, hehe... sorry for my historical ignorance
Funny thing is the BDU telling me (translated): 'We need results, be more aggressive!'...
