In the Stock game, they have the boat arriving and available in Fremantle 1st August 1943... However, there is no career start until 15th January, 1944, and then only at Pearl. So you either start at Pearl on that date, and then transfer to Fremantle, or you start in 1943 in a Tambor or Gar, and hope for an upgrade to the Balao... not easy to do. Some of the major mods make it a bit easy to get into one...

This game is ********d up. Started a 5 day patrol of area F7. Returning to Freemantle, that's no lomger my base. WTH! Got to looking, it moved to Pearl Harbor. Ok, lets go. Now when I left Freemantle, it was 10/43. I arrive at Pearl and its now 7/6/42. I passed through a time Vortex. I went back in time. Whats going on?
