Is it the same scale as WITP? If so, it really shows just how expansive the Pacific Ocean really is....

Its 30 miles/hex - thats why ships have speed 70 knots or so to compensate change of scale [;)]

Alaskanwarrior also hosted my mod. In your page you can find the mod in five packs.
 
I don't have any problem that Spooky and Rogue hosted my mod, but the size of the file is 58 MB and i cannot send them the file by e-mail.

I found some info about the Schnellboote in the med.

The 3. Schnellbootflottille goes to the med throuth the rhine river and the rhone river at nov. 1941 with follow units:

S30, S31, S33, S34, S35, S36, at feb.1942 S54, S55, S56, S57, S58, S59, S60, S61

The can drive 800 sm at 30 kn. They have 2 Torp. Lauchner and two Torpedos als reserve. They can take 6 Mines without the Torpedo Reserve. Theres many mines lays in the channel and in the med. At the beginning of the war they have 1 x 2-cm MG C/30 and later one another at the back and 2 x 7,9-mm MG (later max 8 x 7,9 mm MG). 24-30 men crew.

The 7. Schnellbootflottille goes the same way to the med at nov. 1942.

S151 ex. TM 54, S152 ex TM 55, S153 ex TM 56, S154 ex TM 57, S155 ex TM 58, S156 ex TM 59, S157 ex TM 60, S158 ex TM 61

This were dutch build MTB for England, which werent deliver because the war come. They build from german build-plans. I havent found tech. Dates of this schnellboote.

Francis Drake on search...

here are info about a captured destroyer from the germans in greek:

Here is a list of freighters, Tanker and AP ships. They were chartert from the Wehrmacht and used for the war in med.

http://www.wlb-stuttgart.de/seekrieg/km ... en/mmr.htm

they were all above 1000 BRT. (all ex Italia, Greek, British, France, Dansk, Norway, German Privat Lines, Dutch)

Some of them are in the Game:

Freighters (Frachter):
No. 16 Citta di Marsala
No. 37 Leopardi (build)
No. 39 Maddalena G.
No. 48 Numidia (build)
No. 58 Rapido (build)
No. 59 Ravello (build)
No. 71 Citta di Savona (renamed Sieglinde, after sep.43 ???)

Tanker:
no one in the game

AP (Passagierschiffe):
No. 5 Citta di Tunesi ( in the game as AK)


One another site of ships. They come from spain.

http://www.wlb-stuttgart.de/seekrieg/km ... ter-sp.htm

some can be used in the game, the most are to small, I think.

Many thanks Francis!
However, add new ships to mod it's not a easy work. I must build a ship graphic beside the "normal" dates like speed, endurance, etc..
Be patient, i will do in the future.
Next week i hope release the 1.1 versión of the mod with many new goodies.
Three new AK Classes are present, all german; AK Brook, AK Reichenfels and AK Savona.

I some sources i read that the italian naval gunnery was very "deficient" during the WWII, this is the reason why decide use the 305mm gun not the 340mm gun.

That depends of the Gun type.

I must build a ship graphic beside the "normal" dates like speed, endurance, etc..

You could just put a photo and let the art for a later time. Just an idea of course.

I have a lots of italian war photos, if you want i can give it to you or if you prefer i can edit them for the game.

Thanks fremen. I have to say thank you!

But i have lots more work for you. [:D]

MOD UPGRADED TO 1.1 VERSION

Download upgrade zip from this link:


http://www.sendspace.com/file/e3gqy1


I'm also upgrade my web page with more WITM Stuff: http://www.telefonica.net/web2/witp/witm/witm-e.html

Errors:

-Maneouver of the Bf-109F-4, Bf-109G-6 and Fw-190A-8 corrected.
-Naval armament of CL Attilio Regolo corrected.
-German Hs missile available from may 43.
-Number and availability of German Schellboote corrected.
-Axis PP reduced to 0 when scen starts.
-BB Conte di Cavour and BB Veneto have substantial damage on start. Cavour was in Trieste under heavy re-build after Tarentum british attack and Veneto was torpedoed month before by british submarine.
-Situation of the 164th German infantry division corrected.

New features:

-Bomber version of He-111H-16
-Three new german AK classes, AK Brook, AK Reichenfels and AK Savona.
-French old battleship BB Lorraine put in Alexandría like static CD unit.
-New german transport Me-323 available from november 42.
-New Greek bases: Lamia, Kefalonia, Patras, Larissa and Tesalonica.
-New Middle East bases: Beirut and Jerusalem.
-New axis ground units in Balkan and Aegean theatre.
-Several british airgroups of Hurries upgraded to Spitfire Vb to compensate the incapacity of the british to upgrade until may 42 (hardcoded again).

Trivia:
The Italian navy had not developed smokeless gunpowder for their ships, so visually, their gunnery was impaired after the first salvo, and they became easier to spot in the daytime..
At night, the smoke of their own guns of course helped their enemy to locate them as the smoke would also be illuminated by each salvo flash....

BTW, that huge ME 323 came in 2 versions, powered, and glider, and both were used for supply and transport in this theatre..

You have done a really great job Fremen.

I'm starting today the first game with this mode and I'm sure I'll really enjoy it.

More work for you fremen! [:D]

very hard and long work for you, but next i search for the Torpedobootflottillen...

Thanks F.Drake.
In spite of it's my desire add all ships "historicaly" present in the Med, some reinforcements are not possible.
I can add french and greek captures but not italian captures like the TA-23's types.
I my mod it's not possible "simulate" the italian armistice so those ships in shipyards would be italian in the future.
 
I promise to add "Hermes" ex-Vasilefs Georgios, TA-9's types (ex Melpomene class) and SG-14 (ex PC Elan class).

ORIGINAL: George Patton

You have done a really great job Fremen.

I'm starting today the first game with this mode and I'm sure I'll really enjoy it.

Thanks!

I hope so Patton..

TA-23 and TA-26 - these should not be added. But TA-24 and TA-25 should - these were during construction when captured and did not serve Regia Marina.

So you should add either Intrepido or TA-25 (Ciclone type TB) and either Arturo or TA-24 (Ariete type TB).

Others TB's of Ariete class completed by Germans after Itally colapses:
TA-27 ex Auriga
TA-28 ex Rigel
TA-29 ex Eridano
TA-30 ex Dragone
TA-36 ex Stella Polare
TA-37 ex Gladio
TA-38 ex Spada
TA-39 ex Daga
TA-40 ex Pugnale
TA-41 ex Lancia
TA-42 ex Alabarda
TA-45 ex Spica

EDIT: Now I see they are already in te game
