Playing this game is a constant source of learning both for the game and for history.

For example, the site combinedfleet.com has the TROM of U-862 / I-502 up since at least 2010 :

15 January 1945:
Gisborne Harbour, New Zealand. KK Timm takes U-862 into the shallows to reconnoiter the harbor for shipping, but finds no suitable targets.


About German operations, here is an interesting article on German Raiders in the Pacific.

Good article, thanks.


I'd like to read the memoires of the German U boote watchman mentioned
