boneman · 05-29-08, 10:47 AM

can somebody give me info about AI subs in GWX 2.1 and where you can find them?

Friendly or enemy? There are friendly ones sailing in and out of harbors, and dogging certain convoys. They will attack the convoys with their deck guns. Not much use, but they draw off the escorts sometimes.

All this is with GWX, of course.

They are also responsible for the circular map contacts you sometimes get. Once I crossed paths with a VII as we both headed out to our patrol grids-me due W, him SW. About 2 days later, on his general track, I got a circular contact.

what do you mean with a "circular contact"?

Allied subs can also attack your fellow ships and you... but only with deckguns. I've spotted several British subs in their convoys, safeguarding their stuff. Some are surfaced, some are submerged. I've even sunk a few Russian and British subs to boot.

I posted awhile back about a simular event.

I thought it was one of ours comeing home.

That is until the S.O.B started shooting at me.

Went to PD and got behind him, blew ballast and got on the surface quick.

It was like chaseing a snake.

I used every DG round but, finally got the bugger.

740 tons

I don't have a clue.

I use a formula that has to do with tonnage and historical u-boot Kpt history.

There shape of the contact on the map is totally dependant on the lead vessel in the formation,

If it's a boat, it is square, but if it's a submarine, it will be circular.
