That's a good point. It's my first trip to US shores and I'm a bit worried about fuel. It's Feb 1942 so I don't think are any Cows about (I'd welcome correction if I'm wrong). I looked on the resupply list and it seems my best bet is a couple of ships right over in the Canaries? That's still 7500km away.

Milchkuhe should appear somewhere from April 1942; the would operate some 1000 km from the US coast in order to avoid detection.

So if your career is in Feb'42 now, it is accurate that there are no Milchkuhe present....7500 km is a looooong way...hope you brought your oars with you.

Thanks Rem.

Things are not so bad, I have enough fuel for maybe 12,000 km left if the weather is okay but I haven't even reached my assigned box DB94 yet. I do have 31,000 tons though so maybe I just won't hang around too long!

Otherwise I could just bob around and play cards until April
