Is this right? GWX question

[rocco]

Hello,

I finally decided to give GWX a go since I had to wipe my hard drive recently (lost
my one and only career, it will be missed).
I must say I'm impressed

I decided to join the 2nd flotilla in 1940 since I hadn't gotten into a type IX yet and
wanted to be on the west coast of France. (previous career was a Type VII B out of Kiel). But I ended up in a Type II D based in Kiel. I thought I would be in a IX or maybe a VII out of Lorient?

I must say, I kind of like the II D except for the small loadout of fish. But I really
did not want to be sailing from Kiel again (especially in a II D, long trips). So is this
right, or did something go wrong?

Also, I received a radio message from another Uboot that he had attacked a
convoy in a certain sector, and that the only escort for the convoy was sunk.
It was wide open for attack. I thought this might just be for flavor, but about
twelve hours or so later a convoy contact appeared on the map that looked
to be heading from that location. I intercepted and sank a large tanker, but I
believe it had escort. I escaped easily enough (rough sea, heavy fog and rain)
but was wondering if the message I received was real, and maybe a new
escort joined up with the convoy?

Thanks for any help

Patiently waiting for silent hunter 4....
