... but I wanted an old boat!!

horrgakx · 09-28-06, 01:21 PM

Came to the end of a campaign in my nice new boat (never did manage to see the type 20) and thought I'd start REALLY basic.

I wanted to get the oldest, smallest sub in the game & work up. But I've got the VIIIB which isn't quite what I wanted... How'd I get the older one?

Make sure you pick the right flotilla. That dictates what boat you start with.

If you are using Grey Wolves/NYGM it says when you pick the flotilla what boats they have.

If your using an unmodded version, its been so long since ive used that i cant remember what it looks like at the flotilla screen!!

Hope this helps.

Start in the year 1939 and pick the 1st flootila. They used the IIA types!

Hope it help

Remember the range of the boats means once your out of the habour, you have to go back!!

They don't call them canoue's for nothing!!!

The IIA was really a coastal U-boat. I will have to say they are more fun to sneak into a harbor in than the big boys!
