Default What Has Been Your Highest Tonnage Total?

What has been your highest tonnage total for a given patrol?

0-20,000
21,000-40,000
41,000-60,000
61,000-80,000
81,000-100,000
100,000+

List your realsim % for your patrol.
List your boat type.
Year and month (if memory serves)


By the way this is my unscientific way of finding out how much harder 100% realsim is compared to say 50%.

Come on mates it's in the name of SCIENCE

88000

I think it was 1941. Can't remember all the details but anyway, after taking out a couple of C2s and a destroyer on the way to the patrol grid, I bumped into a convoy and took out the corvette escorts. Then I surfaced and used the deck gun and the rest of my torpedos to sink everything else. Almost.

I play at 55%. Type VII.

Trick is to sink C2s and C3s with one shot.

164,000 VIIB 1942 64%

Heading to the U.S>, I met up with 6 lone passenger liners and sank them each with a single shot to the bow (they were all steaming east at 15 kts). Finished my patrol by encountering a nice convoy with T3's.

BTW, in 1940 I sank a complete convoy including the escorts for a total of 18 ships (had to finish off many of them with the deck gun as I ran out of fish).

120,188 tons
Realism? Not sure, but guess it'd be around 75-80+ %. (event cam, WE assistance & stabilized scope on)
Type VIIB
November- December 1940.

Current patrol, though, could be the best so far. 77,000 tons bagged, huge convoy/ task force about to show up, 9 torps left. IXB, July 1942, realism as above.
Oh yeah: no campaign affecting mods.

Never made it over 100k yet. Been close a few times. My current career, 20 patrols, I am averaging about 60k, and that with 3 patrols in a type II.

From reading some of your replies if the u-boats were as successful as a whole much like you guys, the French would be speaking German today.

Man, you guys rock
