Heading off to the Thames Estuary in a Type XXIII (two eels) so will be particularly choosy in what I attack.

U-93 patrolling 500km west of Gibraltar, 12 days out of Lorient. Two weapons fired, accounting for 1x Granville-Type and a Small Merchant. Heavy seas and cloud. Sparse contact with enemy.

Continuing patrol.

PS... Von what do you do to keep such good records? Have a pad and paper next to you or something?

Exactly, I take notes during the patrol and then I edit the log_# file (# = patrol number) in C:\Documents and Settings\User\My documents\GWX\data\cfg\Careers\von Harris folder.

i love that boat, hate reloading on the surface even at night.

Shouldnt be able to reload a type 23
Only carried 2 torpedos and they were already loaded in the tubes before the patrol started as no room to carry them inside

engaged task force in the Straits of Gibraltar, battle cruiser HMS Hood sank, later that day Q ship sank.

Ah , Das Boot sunk HMS Hood.

Well done Herr Kaluen!

danke, it was either I sink the hood or the ark royal or HMS Valiant so I chose the Hood, got in at about 600 meters because they made a course change and made for a perfect 90 degree.

U-106, Type IXB, August 1941, docked at the Python supply ship in the South Atlantic.

Have been raiding the shipping lanes around Freetown and Cape Town, notching 7 kills. Then infiltrated St Helena Harbour and sunk 2 cruisers (1 Southampton Class and 1 Fiji Class).

ok I did something very unrealistic I navigated the suez canal, and survived to dock at Mogadishu, and I raided Alexandria.
