What friendly harbors do you like/hate the most?

[Biggles]

Just bored....so I thought I could ask this....oh and give a reson too btw...

myself....I like Brest, since it's easy to get in, easy to get out, and it's close to the action.


I HATE Lorient though. It's so thin and it takes ages to get out!

I like Brest, That one Italian place I forgot what it is called, Penang, Jakarta, And Saint something because it is way easy to get out.

I hate Lorient too but Im use too it.

I absolutely will not use Kiel for any reason. I just can't stand the canal. Lorient doesn't bother me, as I have set SH3 Commander to up the TC when close to land.

I waypoint around Lorient and go ahead slow till I clear out of port.

I like St. Nazaire, it's the only French port I've operated from so far, again it's lovely to be near the action Kiel is my least favourite

Down wit Kiel!!!

It seems everybody hates kiel.

[Biggles]

Naaa. Kiel is okay for me. (0% realism). I just take the long way around, like before GWX.

I like Kiel. It's neat going under the bridges. But then again I play at a lower TC than perhaps many do so it's not a big deal to me to go through the canal.

(And I remember when the game first came out there was such a hullaballoo about, "Whaddya mean the Kiel canal isn't modeled?!" :rotfl: )

Kiel is a great port
Close to the Polish baltic ports for the first patrol
Has nearly all of the major surface units in at one time or another - sometimes up to 3 together
The canal is easy to get through and takes no time at all

Lorient is easy to get out of too - I stand on the bridge and guide the sub out of there

Constanza is real simple to exit as is St Naz and Penang

Salamis is a nice drive out - scenery is good and fairly simple

Not tried Jakarta or Toulon yet

Kiel is interesting once--after that I wanna transfer!
Leaving on my last patrol, the Hipper and the Blucher were docked at the base. They were interesting to see,

I sort of like Lorient it has a snug feel to it--plus I like the food :rotfl:

I left out of Wlhelmshaven on my last patrol, and had quite an escort....the Admiral Hipper:

I guess that's a bad thing about Brest...no big ships....

Except in between april 1940 to March of 1942 Km Scharnhorst and Gneisenau is there!

I'm in Wilhelmshaven now and have had Tirpitz sitting there on my way out on the last few patrols Beautiful, it's the only larger German Warship I've seen though
