July 1944, I had taken my brand new XXI from bergen to Rabaul after a 60 voyage. I am hoping to meet some fleet carriers. Now it's november, I have already made in 3 patrols arround Australia and the philipines I meet quite a number of merchants, tankers and troopships (sunk a number of them too).

But where are the carriers? Anyone seen them?

Are u talking about the Admirals ? They are regulars in topless bars at waikiki beach at this time. They dislike the monsun weather beginning in september.

Trust me, I had been looking.:o There had been only one report of a TF in 3 patrols. When I finally got into visual range, it's just another convoy except it had a cruiser in it along with the troop ships and tankers. The pacific had been pretty empty, hard to believe there is a war going on here...:doh:

Just because I want to send them swimming doesn't mean I want to see them topless.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

GWX didnt add too much into the Pacific as SH4 was WIP and dint want to step on UBIs toes
However there are more than a few TFs and operations scripted
The manual lists them all

I did went to Leyte gulf about the time it's invaded, except for the ocassional plane overhead, didn't see as much as a sailling boat arround the philippines. I guess even the local fisherman decide to stay home.

I don't think you will find Nimitz in the SH3, because it wasn't built until early 1970s. :D But if you're looking for Admiral Nimitz, he can be found in Honolulu, Hawaii. :lol:

I'm not sure for Halsey...

I was hoping too meet Bill Halsey or Chester Nimitz, (or MacArthur) as they swim towards my conning tower. I will give them the best possible reception. My boat have a fridge and a shower.:know: Good luck finding that on Japanese submarines.

On the golf course where you find all officers. :)

I think Nimitz and Spruance are buried at the Golden Gate Cemetary in Monterey, CA.

The manual lists them and my Mission Orders mod or WBNN should point you in the right direction.
