I am aware about it, Volodya, this is what I meant when I said that Sovied leaders betrayed revolution's ideals and, what is worst, their own People.
There is a secondary effect to it, probably lesser dramatic, but historically not lesser relevant: in the mentality of the standard western citizen, "communist" (i.e. egalitarian) ideology started being wrongly confuded with the repression by communist regimes. Unfortunately, this equivocation was exploited by the western economic lobbies, and provided them with the moral backing that they needed for creating this stupid world. In other words, Stalin and the likes missed a date with the history by failing to create a better world and, on the contrary, they contributed indirectly to this kind of soft dictatorship known as "liberalism", where everyone is TOTALLY FREE to do what someone else has conditioned him to do
(at his own and his neighbour's expenses though).
Sorry again for the long OT, I got transported

It has been written to play out like a movie
When your boat gets to within 8km of the orange marker (est visual range) a script is triggered.
This script is that either one of the two mine layer/sweeper will pass in front of you.
A huge German air attack (4 or 5 waves) will sweep in and attack the minelayers just before you have had time to set up an attack.
So this first mission is to watch SH5 in its glory and see spectacular air power demo.
There after the German fleet comes to town and mops up any leftovers.
Sit back and watch - the kill a cargo or two to finish the mission
The many hydro contact you are getting are the Polish subs x5 minelayers x2 and I think the odd sweeper - (all as per wiki history )
I have set the area like this to ensure that the script get triggered. This is after all the intro
Future campaigns, objectives and missions will have a LARGE search area  |
Thank you for your clarifications Trevally,
I see your point about this heavily scripted objective. It is for making people happy with an easy starter, and to prevent them from throwing OH in the recycle bin after the first two patrol days. Isn't it?
