Campaign stages that gives Blueprint

[boris.glevrk]

Does anyone have a list on what campaign, what stages give blueprints? I currently only know Tonnage War stage 2 gives on. I wonder if Happy Days stage 2 also give one? I'm fine just with a Type VIIB for now.

These campaigns offer blueprints as reward:

Tonnage War in stage 2
Black Pit in stage 2
Last Stand in stage 2
Battle of the Mediterranean in stage 2
Northern Waters
Mediterranean Operations

Thank you that's really helpful.
What about requirements? IID and VIIB seems to only need 1 each, what about VIIC and VIIC/41?

VIIC is just one blueprint; haven't gotten up to unlocking that one yet (on Med Ops 3/4 right now) but I imagine VIIC/41 is also just one.

I figure that the amount of blueprints available being greater than the amount of blueprints needed is so that players can still earn all U-Boats starting from the IIA even if they miss a couple of campaigns (e.g. a player who just never crosses through the Straits of Gibraltar is obviously unlikely to complete the Mediterranean campaigns).

Also Atlantic Theater Operations (stage 3 of 4 if I remember right). I believe this one is the earliest opportunity to get a VIIB if you started from a IIA.

I thought earliest opportunity was Tonnage War 2? Is Atlantic Operations even open to IIA? a lot of campaigns are locked for IIA because of its poor range.

Tonnage War 2 would get you the IIB if you started in a IIA. Atlantic Theater Operations is open to the IIB, not sure about the IIA.

it's IID and I think it's not open to IIA. IIA really have range problems to the point that it would be difficult to even make a Scapa Flow round-trip.

Historically, yes. In game not at all. Use engineer and navigator bonuses and you'll get around 18000km out of it at Forward 3

let's not forget unless you want to keep switching sailors, you can't have both engineers work with 2 extra sailors at all times...

also, Mediterranian Ops gives TWO blueprints, one at stage 2, one at stage 4.

I actually fixed that manual work with automatic tasks and schedule. So officers and sailors switch automatically, in my case very 4 hours.

It works 80% of the time - in 20% the Leader is not doing navigation tasks but sits idle.
