Silent Hunter II Aces Kampaign

Ok, I'm going to try a variation for Mission 1 (fall 1939). My boat will be a Type VIIB from the Wegener Flotilla based in Wilhelmshaven. My start location will be the same, but I have a longer distance to head home. So, my fuel is set at 80%. I hope this works without errors, but we shall see.

set your speed at standard and only use 1 engine, starboard or port, then switch between them as they need repairs, you will save fuel but move slowly.

Ok, getting back to Wilhelmshaven doesn't present any problems with fuel consumption in Mission 1 of Aces.

One thing about playing SHII with this old computer: to prevent a CTD, I must run my video card at medium color (16 bit) rather than high (32 bit).

Another thing: I tested the depth capability of the VIIB during the Training Mission 3. I made it to 160 meters safely, so this is fine. I hope I can actually get through a few of the Aces Kampaign missions before something unfortunate happens.
