My orders say to be on lifeguard duty NLT December 5. Now that is some long term planning to say the least. It is only July 25. I have to cruise around for 4 1/2 months before I can go and complete this objective?
I have searched and read all there is to read on completing lifeguard missions and I've done 2 myself before ...but I've never heard of such a long span of time before the mission. I've read that showing up triggers the battle but my experience has been that that isn't enough. I have had to wait for the proper time peroid to occur too.
So what do I do in the mean time? Cruise around Rabual sinking traffic and refititng in Brisbane when I run out of torpedoes? With the extra heavy Rabual area traffic that could mean 2-4 refits without ending a patrol. Plus I will lose out on the renown points for the objectives I won't be able to complete because I'm waiting on this one to come to term. :shifty:
Thoughts?
