about Truk...

So I made it into Truk again, but I'm beginning to feel guilty writing about it.

Truk "feels" dangerous, but is it? I don't think penetrating the anchorage 3x without taking damage is very realistic. I assume only the fix by Orpheus is to credit my survival.

If anyone can easily slip in I should probably not consider it a feather in my cap.

We all did it....

I reworked several capital ports for myself by adding numerous shore guns, searchlights, minefields, subnets and sub killer groups. The only time I go into Truk is to try a special photo recon mission of carriers. Took me 3 tries before I got my photos and out alive and I knew what I was up against.

[c13Garrison]

so penetrating the fabled bastion of Truk isn't special at all.

Dang if that isn't a disappointment.

Forgive me for being impressed with myself.

It's just another place where there were shortcuts taken. Penetrating major bases was hardly ever attempted in RL, so not much attention was given to it.

Now there's a mod for the making, extra minefields and sub nets. Put those into one of the photo missions in RSRDC.
