Yeah. I'm surprised at that actually since SHIV did a much better job in that regard - they didn't have "sea trucks" but they did include a few good classes of small merchant/transport ships of lower tonnage. Here the tonnage range is definitely more in the vein of SHIII's defaults or even higher. When I play, I just try to put it down to wartime over-claims.

Frederf: not sure what your particular beef is there. It's been mostly the same in the previous two SH games and frankly escort-wise, the list is pretty adequate if not in any way impressive. The merchant list however could use a bit of beefing up, and I would have rather seen more of those than battleships.
