I think I am going to have to remain constantly at sea and re-fit in nearest friendly ports



Also....I am using the half tonnage requiremnt mod, IF it is working on this campaign the real requirement will be double
Im using the lite campaign mod, which i believe is a derivative of the less tonnage mod, and it may still say you have to sink 50 merchants but 25 will be enough for the stars.

At least thats how it seems to work in the earlier campaigns using this mod. So sometimes the campaign objectives remain as high as they were in stock, but you'll get the full credit for just half that amount - if that makes any sense :-)

But the stock quota systrem is insane and leaving aside the non-realistic nature of those targets, it also just takes much fun away from the game because it becomes a chore.

Maybe they needed to make the AI buggy and horrible so that players coulkd actually accomplish the objectives. Imagine if the game had good AI, those targets would be impossible.
