Yeah i didn't tend to use it, it was just a little confusing that a IXB, with a IX/1 tower, has it and the IXC, with exactly the same tower, can't have it.

An updated equipment chart would be great though...

The chart has slipped the nets in the past. Its now on the To-do pile. Hopefully will be sorted for release of the 2.1

I've often wondered about the equipment,thanks for clearing that one up P_G

Penelope, I am sure legions of GWX kaleuns would be most grateful for someone in the Grey Wolves to ensure that the equipment/upgrade availability dates are corrected in the game. And not just when you can buy the upgrades with Renown but also actually use them in game.

I've been absolutely lost concerning when a particular u-boat or upgrade can not only be purchased but also used, especially the VIIC/41 player sub mod that is packaged with GWX 2.0.

Knowing the correct dates when you click on an item would be deeply appreciated.

I second that Graf paper,it would be a good idea to know just when what is really available

There is a historygram included in game that gives you an approximate timeline.

The exact day or week of the fitting of upgrades is not always available....even when using search techniques on the internet.

Usually you can tell when a boat is launched, but the exact fitting out date is often harder to ascertain

Well, I certainly wasn't expecting a precision measured by exact days.

Giving information based on an approximate time that would be based on months or even seasons would be plenty, like "Available June 1942" or "Summer 1942" and having said timeframe apply to when you can purchase and use boats, equipment, and upgrades.

I meant having this applied to the screen for equipment/upgrades when you click on an item and get its description.

I'll have to take a closer second look at that timeline you mentioned, jimbuna. I thought it only showed availability of u-boats per each flotilla.
