Somequeries for a mission I'm making

[AirHippo]

Howdy all. Finally figured out the SC/SCX problem; looks to be a memory overflow (so I've got to keep the number of entities in each mission down as far as possible). That, fortunately, doesn't preclude some quite exciting missions, as I shall attempt to prove.

The basic outline is that, in a hypothetical WP/NATO conflict during mid-1986 (my edition of Jane's Fighting Ships being from 1986-87 sorta determined that for me) in which the NATO forces have followed the experiments conducted during the Ocean Safari, Teamwork and Northern Wedding exercises in the 1980s, wherein US carriers would position themselves in the larger Norwegian fjords in order to thwart Soviet air and sea-borne attack. In this case, a US carrier and her five surface escorts are positioned in a small fjord off the Vestfjord. The carrier is defended by five escorts, a small minefield at the approach to the secondary fjord, two submarines, a patrolling Norwegian force and around four aircraft.

Anyways, queries. Firstly, does anyone know of a downloadable Kobben (German Type 207) class for SC? Currently I'm using British Oberon class boats as a substitute, which are adequate, and not too unlikely, but make less sense than I'd like. Secondly, what are conditions like in these fjords? What's the bottom like? Are storms and suchlike frequent in the summer months? There'll doubtless be more as I work on it (I was hoping to make it a Victor-II and -III campaign, but since I have no idea how to make a campaign that went out of the window), but those are all for now.

To my knowlege theres no type 207 for download in sub command that i know of.

The term Fjord is a long narrow inlet carved by glacical activity, they generally have steep sides created in a valley.
They in some cases can be deeper than the adjacent seas which fills them,Fjords generally have a sill or rise at the mouth caused by recent terminal moraine and in many cases causing extreme currentsand large sea water rapids.

There are diffrent types of Fjords ones in norway are generally deep water mud bottomed sediment from erroded bedrock which gives a silty layer, deepest fjord is sognefjord norway and goes down to 1300meters (only a mike class may go that deep) so the hopes of resting on the bottom is a bit shattered there but there are also shallow water fjords most found in new zealand and they also are home to alot of coral life.

So most are deep at the mouth getting slightly shallower further inland, sedimentary mud and sand bottom from erroded bedrock with strong currents and rapids.

Hope that helps
