I have only raided a few ports in my day.
Because i am a DiD player... i find that it is not worth the risk generally speaking.
In real life there were a lot more hazards to the u-boat than the typical SH3 net/mine business. and most harbors had areas where ships could tie up where it would be nearly impossible to get a torpedo into.
most times, when a u-boat was suspected in a port, it would practically be a done deal for the escorts etc to trap the u-boat within the confines of the port.
for the most part... port raiding almost never took place in real life. so i dont really do it unless im in a major dry spell and it is 1939 - 40
I think GWX would have done well to put hundreds of mines around ports, and if not that... at least a few layers of sub nets.
EDIT: because i think that the AI structure in SH3 was not meant to properly address or retaliate to port raiding... i voted "shameless exploitation" hehehe
