What do you think is the best invasion force to attack, mostly RSRD since they're done correctly, although stock has some.

I usually start out of Manila to catch the invasion forces around the Philippines. I assume most head north to attack the large invasion forces there. I finally found the one I was looking for near the San Bern Straits. I've got a patrol star there many times and never found it, but this time hung around after the patrol. A small TF showed up with a large Minelayer, but then paydirt, a large invasion force behind it. It has several Chistose, which you seldom see and some large liners...Hang at the north end of the San Bern just about 30NM's out of the strait..great group. Be there around the 15 of Dec and wait. Something else may find you, so be careful.

I got so mad after I attacked it. On the way to Surabaya I ran into a large TF, all DD's and one CA..Nice storm so I went through them, sank one by sonar and blasting others with the DG blind...Why at the attack map getting into position,..all of a sudden I got ship spotted messages..The storm did it's fast clearing in seconds. Came to the deck and just sprinkles, fog gone and several DD's blasting me...I got dived, but 70% damage and they finished me off....

Sorry Arm. I'm a rebel, I'll sneak in and raid a harbor. I'm not much into fleet battles with my little Gato! Maybe in the Narwhal... :hmmm:

I keep getting my ptrol orders for that area but never found anything....will have to give it another go.

Went to CamRar Bay yesterday.....13th Dec and there are three separate groups...hours of fun and three battleships sunk :DL

I'll have to say the Port Moresby invasion force is a biggy, fully loaded, so ships blow up nicely with one torp.

I just finished attacking the Coral Sea TF, sunk both carriers. Headed towards Rabual thinking it was time the invasion force turned back and ran into a small TF with 3 large minelayers, sunk one. On the way back to Brisbane I ran into the Moresby force, but only 5 torps, but got two...

It's a biggy.
