Before Gray Wolves, any version, I never finished live careers because I was always stopping and rebuilding the game.
Since all GW I have finished
1 1944-45 career
2 1943-45 careers (one GWX2 the other GWX3)
1 GWX3 1939-45 career.

The hardest was the GWX2 43-45 one because I tripled the escorts for every convoy (some would be ringed 3 deep).
And, that was when I still had a spine and attacked convoys with a vengeance.
The other GWX3 43-45 had more escorts but not as many as in the GWX2.

The 39-45 whole war career was modified GWX3 but besides making all AS vessels 3 crew rated or higher I did not add near as many escorts.
My original thought was putting in what they really had but then in reality I would have help with wolf pack mates and we don't have that in SH3 so I backed down which gives me a better chance now.

Also from mid 43 I stay away from convoys except for long range latter torpedo shots and as soon as I fire I am about face at 60% and if I get a lucky hit I am somewhere away from the fish track.

I play 100% DID no excuses even unfair ones (war was not fair).

If it were easy I would have gotten bored and not be playing it (Like SH4)

GWX3 makes the sim no doubt.
