Is this still the case? - I am running 'malfunctions' (but not sabotage - MY crew would never betray the Fatherland!), and it seems to be going fine. (On the previous cruise I had 'vaseline' all over my attack scope. And in this cruise, when I select 'ahead flank', Engine Telegraph and Speed drop to zero - it made chasing down a whale factory ship doing between 8 & 11 knots in bad weather, when I was only able to get from 6 - 10 knots out of the ol' girl on full, a real interesting exercise in patience and tactics. I LIKE it!

The reason I hadn't noted this before, is that I DL'd and installed GWX some weeks before I decided to DL SH3 (for the first time).
I run Malfunctions with no problems, at least none that I've ever noticed. Sabotage (for me at least) is for the French ports, where the local dockworkers might be partisans.
