Dock at a milch cow or RTB......better still use your primary weapon of destruction, namely your eels....most kaleuns tended to

Thanks again! I'll have to be more conservative with the deck gun ammo on my next mission. Ran into a tugboat and hit it hard before I ran out of ammo. That little tug wouldn't sink!

Do they have resupply in SH3 with 1.4b patch?

Cheers

Not in stock/vanilla version you need to load a MOD...my advice would be to try GWX

My advise, get the GWX super mod. Simplifys the ammo because it only gives you what was historically correct. (what does a uboat need starshells for??? nothing). Also you can enjoy milch cows and a 1000 better play arena than vanilla could ever offer

So just a question,

With stock SH3, I can resupply my deck gun ammo by returning to base?

Thanks.

Hi mate,

As I understand it, if you return to your starting base then it's considered "end of mission". But if you dock at any other friendly base you'll be completely re-armed and re-fueled (which will take a number of days) you'll be repaired too!

But that's going to be also the end of mission. After that ll is counted anew, like tonnage,number of sunk ships, days spent at sea, patrol counter etc. And it's always some advantage to dock at your home base if you can, as you can check there, if there are any improvements for your boat available.
