Transfer Available

Every time I am in port I check my transfers.. Today I got one but I have to accept it.

It is for the Asiatic fleet.

What exactly happens if I accept it?
What if I do not accept?

If you accept, you go to the Asiatic fleet and get patrols from there.
If you don't accept, you stay in your present location and get patrols from there.
Patrols zones assigned are different for each area.

Your first patrol from your new zone will, however, be the one you would have received from old zone.. UBI-hell again.

Skirich,
what mikesn9 says is true.
i will add only that, depending on your boat and your home port, you may be transferred to other duties IF your boat is being retired AND you refuse your upgrade to a new boat.
for example, you are driving an S-boat with an Aleutian home port in 1944. if that port is being "closed" you and your boat need another home port to continue. by that time, however, there is no other home port for an S-boat. so, if you refuse the upgrade, you will be transferred stateside....meaning: your current career is over.
just keep it in mind.

Further to the posted remarks, another SH4 "feature" is that if you accept a new boat, your home port may be changed as well (likely to where the new boats are active).

After accepting a new boat, it's a good idea to confirm your home port (tilted anchor) before getting too far out on a patrol, lest you find yourself out of diesel bobbing in the middle of the Pacific after returning to the old home port... Don't ask how I know...
