Looking at the numbers they might be a bit veteran heavy early in the war. OA and OB run into '41, so it's a tradeoff between being too easy early on or too easy later on. Flip a coin. Most of the other convoys stop by the end of '40 and are replaced with new definitions, so they can be reduced to, say, all competent, possibly.

How do the skill levels work?
Suppose you have 4 escort types listed for a convoy, 1 of each, e.g. one trawler, one corvette, one sloop, and one destroyer.
Then you have skill levels at: 33% elite, 33% veteran, 33% competent.
Does that mean that any escort out of the 4 has a 33% chance of being elite, a 33% chance of being veteran, and a 33% chance of being competent?
I don't see how you can say that the 33% elite applies only to the trawler.
