Thank you!
I did just that on my way back through the channel, and stumbled on two separate carriers, escorted by DDs, I was of course torpedoless.
Another set of questions:
Is there any way to get an ID on ship other than scrolling through the recognition book? All I see so far is; unknown/warship/merchant
Is there any way to get use my sonarman's special abilities other than running over to him, clicking and selecting the option in the dialog panel?
