Default [REL] Battle of the Sibuyan Sea

I played a bit with the mission editor and this is what I come up with. The mission is made for surface vessels e.g. the playable Yamato, Pocketbattleship or Fubuki but of course submarines work too.
The mission is obviously played on the Japanese/German side.

It’s not meant to be a historic mission. It’s a fun or arcade mission.
My goal was to create a large long range naval battle for surface ships.

It takes 2 real time hours (without time compression) to get to the actual combat zone and I swear using the time laps function excessively and without caution will get you killed.

The air strikes are not a script from me but generated by the game it’s self.
That works quite well, they managed to sink me on a Yamato before I could reach the actual combat zone when I tried not avoiding their bombs.
When you have contact with the US fleet issue a contact report, this will most likely trigger a friendly air strike from Manila airbase. At least that is what I have observed.

Sinking any US ships is only a secondary objective because depending on your ship you maybe won’t sink anything.

As this battle is large scale there will be many units which means that this might challenge even a good rig especially when you use some high quality mods e.g. ROW PE or Environmental.

Important:

Please use the range fix mod by W4lt3r !
You can find it here: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=136499
(Some playable ships or other mods already have something like this included, I only tested the mission with the stand alone version from W4lt3r)

Features:
- Long range ship to ship combat in a large scale naval battle
- Heavy air attacks generated by the game itself

Notes:
- The mission was made for surface vessels
- The mission was made with the range fix mod made by W4lt3r in mind
- The mission is completely fictional
- The mission will utilize your hardware to capacity
- Compatible only with Silent Hunter U-Boat Mission V1.5
- Compatible with any playable unit on the German side

Installation: extract the rar file into your singlemission folder in the data folder of you main sh4 directory.

Thanks to all modder who make or made surface ships or helping other people doing so because I ike them.

As I’m a noob comments are appreciated.:rotfl:
