One of the things these mods strive for is reality.

You sir have found reality.

Quite often the mission assigned to you would take you far from the action. You go to that mission area and see nothing but the odd sampan. Why? Because the war is a thousand or so miles to the south of you. Unfortunatly the missions issued are NOT tied to any real stragic location or events generated by the mods. I guess the modders never cracked that nut.

Furthermore it was not uncommon for a sub crew to go days, weeks, months, indeed entire patrols without firing a single shot in anger. Thats reality.

But this is a game and that would be boring.

So what to do?

First of all forget that mission unless your willing to bob around for 96 hours for a couple hundred renown. Maybe we need a fishing minigame

Secondly pay attention to the flash traffic often recieved (with RFB) they will often mention RJN activities complete with expected date, time, and approximate location. Thats where the action is

Lastley do a little study as to the war in the pacific note major events and the spread of the RJN major invasions and surface engagements and their dates. Often these will be generated by the mods.

When in doubt cruise 'the slot' your almost sure to run into something there

Ill leave it up to you to find out where 'the slot' is
