Started a campaign.

I have now played for almost a year in the campaign. Even won a medal of honor.. How? I have no idea. Anyway, the problem is this.... I have sunk many, many merchants of differing sizes. I have come across what I thought were convoys and when I radioed in, was told to sink the convoy by message...yet the convoys are JUNKS. All of the ships in the convoys!!

Second, I have not seen nor come across a single warship. Not one! Not a destroyer, cruiser, sub hunter... nothing. I have seen aircraft but NO warships of any kind. All ships I come across are either merchants or junks.

Finally, almost every single ship I hit, 99 %, blows up when hit. I mean blows up big time. Now I am all for cool effects and such, but in reality, most ships actually list, perhaps have a small fire onboard and a small amount of smoke from the damaged section.. They then slowly sink, roll over or break apart.

Just a note, this was a clean SH4 install with the new expansion. And again ONLY RSRDC V310 for SH4 v1.5 is installed at this time.

Any ideas?

When ships ( more than two ) are grouped together the system call it a “Convoy”. What you running into are fishing fleets.

RSRDC is not and “arcade game” but a recreation of “Historical” IJN ops in WW2, IJN units out there you just got to know were to look for them “Historical”.

All stock ships are “empty”, no fuel or ammo as cargo. About 35% of all IJN Merchants have fuel or ammo as cargo.


The Mod is working as design
