It's April 1940. The German occupation of Denmark is complete and the occupation of Norway is well underway. After 48 hours of empty patrol in the sea west of Bergen, BdU orders U-49 north to defend Narvik from possible Allied landings. On the 13th April, U-49 intercepts an enemy task force in grid AF53, 300Km WNW of Namsos. Seas are heavy, skies are bright with patchy cloud, air support by swordfish keeps pushing U-49 underwater and there are at least 4 hours of daylight left. There is no wolfpack, and no backup. Only U-49 stands between this invasion force and Norway.

@Needmore27 That'll be a very heavy sea in SH3! It's a pain in the ass, it keeps making the boat go onto electric and makes it almost impossible to stalk a convoy.
