where the "difficulty" comes into it... is in the AI, as the war progresses, it will be increasingly difficult to outwit the escorts.

Radar plays a more active role than in stock so surface attacks and surface intercepts become very very difficult to pull off - dare i say impossible after mid 1943. additionally guns on the escorts - as in real life - became increasingly radar directed, so they can be devastatingly accurate at long range.

GWX is just more historically accurate - so rather than having the stock 75% chance of surviving the war you have a GWX 75% chance of being sunk.

I survived several campaigns to wars end in the stock version

In GWX, i have managed to survive perhaps two or three campaigns to the end of the war - of course i play on 89 - 100% realism depending on how serious an experience i want.
