My type IXC carrer has lasted the longest so far, Ive made it to January 1943 (GWX 100% realism) and I'm just beginning to feel the bite of allied air power......

it has to do with the fact that it is a coastal sub i guess.

Yeah, I just read in the Type II thread that someone made it to 45 in GWX two times. First time I read someone making it all the way. Hmmm..I may have to divorce my IX soon and give that one a drive. :0

LOL yep I just about sank the whole task force in stock SH3 using the XXI in a single mission. Arrghh!Arrgh!

U-right. I can't quit my IX. No.No.No

My fresh install is not GWX certified yet.

Cheers

I love the XXI, but its like driving an Akula lol its too easy at times to kill loads of stuff off even in the later years of the war. For historical accuracy unless I've had an EXTREMELY successful career (in which the Fuhrur might assign me to one of these new boats) I will stick will a fully kitted out VIIC/42 or an IXC or whatever.

i take out TF's with my IXB's (U-124's) DG
just bumped up on one wich had a southampton class cruizers, a Dido class cruizer,6 DD's and the Illustrious...
none of them has passed or even hit me

My longest career lasted from 1939 to some weeks before 1943 when my good old IXB was blasted to death by depth charges from two determined destroyers.

This time I'll try to survive a bit longer in a VIIC (even though my last VIIC career ended in august 42).

[Stealth Hunter]

GWX Mod:
1939-1945 (made it to the end of the war); full realism; Kapitan zur see Heinrich Koch

Regular SH3:
1939-1943
Engaged American and British battleships after realising the hopelessness of my situation (severe flooding and damage after taking hits from a depth charge attack). I surfaced and shot my remaining torpedoes off. All hit a target. Engaged with a deck gun and AA gun. Decimated by King George's big guns and Iowa's big guns. Sank quickly, died in my beloved U-Boat. Kapitain zur see Manfred Haderlitz.

It was a very long time ago, and way before the "uber" mods such as IUB and RUB were even thought about - way before the concept of GW and GWX! I was playing with vanilla SH3 and I managed to get to about 35 patrols in, can't remember the year, probably 1943 or '44. Back then I always started at the start of the war, it was even before I started using SH3 Commander too. Anyway, what I do remember is that the load and save game feature had problems after so many patrols and I used to get the dreaded CTD. Therefore I used to start all over again. I have started so many new careers and never gone far with them - in fact I may have started more new careers than I've had hot dinners
