No, the moon is there in GWX. You're just cathing it on moonless nights or have the bad luck of overcast clouds...believe me it's there and very pretty rising over the horizon when you're patroling....

Bad luck!? No way! You're a silent Gray Wolf! You don't want the verdammnt moon shining on you when you make an approach to a convoy!

Trust me, the moon is in GWX and it is NOT your friend.

Yep, there is definitely a moon in gwx, and it uses a nice hi-res texture. It even reflects off the water, its very pretty.

Personally I don't mind a bit of moon in gwx - otherwise its so damn dark you can't see the ships, even if your lookouts manage to spot them.

You can count on the moon assisting the escorts in detection but only providing you with better quality screenshots

The moon is a great eye-candy but deadly later in the war against well trained and equiped DDs.

You do know that there are times that the moon is not going to show right?

Not sure how much you know about astronomy but what you describe is called a New Moon..

New Moon - The Moon's unilluminated side is facing the Earth. The Moon is not visible.

As for partly cloudy...sounds normal to me depending on the season.I have had it go for days on end with nothing but clouds,clouds,clouds.
