Nice shot. Just curious; what happens when you sail into "unlabelled" territory (an area that's not part of SH III's grid system) & sink an enemy ship? I would assume that you still get credit for it but how is it listed? I'm asking because I've never done this. I'm into the 5th patrol of a Mediterranean career & I want to see what's happening around Alexandria & Port Said. Thanks.
By Latitude and Longitude. Such as:
