Default Help! Choises and an Small thing

Well...I need some help here...

I,m running Grey Wolves.

Now, I,m still in the Type IIA (1940 7th patrol). and I,m thinking about buying an new submarine.
So I just went looking into an sort of Map with all the subs and upgrades on it (in game career by U-Boat and then the ? Button)

Now...I like the type IX...but when I see the VIIC/2 Conning tower in 1944 You can place 3 Flak stations on it Holy Hell... now I cant Make up my mind I love the IX of its size and the amound of Torps it can carry . but that Conning tower took away my breath.
also wich Flotilla is the best to be at? (currently in 1st Flotilla)

So what would you guys advice?

*small thing*

I see people with grey wolves and their sub has an different skin on it...How do you activate those for your sub?

Well.... In 1944 I think you will still be sunk, no matter how many AA guns you have.

Still, I'm staying with my V11C: I like both it and the fact that you won't be sent to the coast off USA on every patrol.

I love the Type VII. In the beginning I always went for a new and bigger sub, but I somehow come back to the VII.

Here is a link for the beautiful camoflaged Fubar Type VII (Screenshot on the page):

Just use it with the mod enabler.

Now you mention Long Range boats will be sended further , Not that I hate long journeys....but I hate the journey that doesnt give me any distraction what so ever. I think I stay Screwing around with the Brits and go Full Type VII

thanks for the Camo link, I check it out when i,m back home.

also, I Transfered myself to the second flotilla with my IIA. and I will upgrady soon to the VIIC as soon the Boat is avaible and after that I got the the VIIC /41 or 42
