watch out for your boss Col! just been reading thru the non spawning escort bug thread... not sure if that's an issue with V1 of the game but just to be safe (and avoid confusion if some ships don't turn up ) alter all the new merchants and escorts dates in the roster cfgs

[UnitClass]
ClassName=DDHuntIII
UnitType=4
AppearanceDate=19190101
DisappearanceDate=19460101
DisplayName=BR DD Hunt III

[Unit 1]
Name=HMS Airedale
DOC=19190101
DOD=19460101

to earlier than the start of the war (i'm guesing the date of the first ship name needs alterng aswell)

if ive understood the bug thread correctly then this should cure any non spawning escorts ships...(and save lots of head scratching later on?)

the escorts all need to have an earlier entry date than the lead ship if i've got the jist of it right? seems easier than altering the campagin to solve the bug!(ie changing the lead merchant in every convoy to an early war vessel) be easy to forget this problem and be wondering why the jap ships dont show etc
