If you speak to Von Dos and get permission to use his ships I can also give you the historically accurate scripted files for:
HMS Glorious
HS Gradisca
Maiale (Xa MAS)
RHN Georgios Averof
RM Aquila
RM Caio Duilio
RM San Giorgio
SS Arandora Star
SS Esperia
SS Rex
They're in my VonDos' ships mod but I can send you the individual _SCR files so you just need to merge them in with ME and add the ship models. I've also found a way to prevent them turning up in random convoys, so unique ships should no longer turn up randomly but only on their historic routes.
My Mission Orders and Warning Orders mods give info about impending operations and scripted ship movement sure as the reinforcement of Malta. You're more than welcome to take the Med specific bits out and use them in your mod.

Thank you very much. I'd like to see what you got, although I need to be careful as I merge your work (I scripted a number of them into their historical locations earlier in the process). But I'd really like to compare what you did to what I've got already and see if I can improve the accuracy of their placement.
One of the things I am going to carefully revisit before its finished is the locations and dates that various ships were assigned to ports. When I started, I tried being attentative to this carefully but lost track on some vessels. Although there are great detailed references out there for dates and times of events, I haven't found a good resource that consolidates the dates and locations of fleet/ship and port assignments. Once I am finished with event scripting, I plan on going back port by port checking this out.
Thanks also for offering to use your radio logs. That should give me a good starting point.
