Default U-Boat Archive

I've just spent a very large amount ofy time reading KTBs and torpedo firing reports on uboatarchive.net. Super interesting information on that site.

I especially find the torpedo firing reports great reading once you translate what's what (or you speak German) its good info. Amazes me Surhen made several 4000m shots. I also love seeing how different 1WOs setup their shots.

I'll definitely be bringing some of this stuff into my playing.

Anyone who's not been there should definitely check that site out.

At end of every game day I read what U-boat archives diaries for that day said. It's a great site

If you're interested in KTBs I can nrecommend the U-Boat Attack Logs. A detailed breakdown and translation of every warship attack in the war, with technical annotations and comment about the attack from the Allied and German perspective. Read the reviews on Amazon (one is mine); it cost me a fair bit but really is worth every penny.

Interesting. I'll read the reviews, the book looks like something that could really add some new info compared to the regular U-boat book
