That was fun, do it again?

Well I don't know if it's a glitch with my setup or wether this will work for everyone but.....

If I exit after completing a patrol in career mode, then immediatly go back to that career to the penultimate save "in base after mission" then BDU assign me the same grid square as my last completed patrol. It might be considered cheating but I have to confess I have done this a few times now. Grid BB93 is surrounded by convoys going in all directions (Jan 43).
Yes the date does keep changing these are new patrols!

My setup is Sh3 1.4 & Grey Wolves 1.1
Type IXC sailing from St Nazaire, Jan 43

I would be interested to know if anyone else can just keep reliving those happy times!

Never heard that before, but I'll head to that grid as soon as I can.
Thanks for the tip off ! Did someone say loose lips sink ships ? :rotfl:

Just kidding, thanks. Can always use that kind of help. I just did a Med patrol, in the grid 20 kms NW from the tip of Malta pass 2 convoys, one large one, worth 140k. In case that's useful to anyone.

Hey, if it's in your favour, exploite it!

I found the route for unescorted passanger liners. Came home 240,000 tons. Needless to say, no torps or deck gun ammo came home!

The odd ramming helps to finish off the stubborn ones too. Just keep an eye on your hull integrity.
