Yeah I'm running on 73% realism, but I think that's only down that far due to having the no external camera and no stabilise view, no map contacts update options off, all other options are on.

So if I were to play realistically then I'd be looking at keeping patrols down to about 60 days. I'll give that a go, might make it a little more interesting.

Yeah, I kind of knew that, the same is true of the Allies they use passenger ships as troop transports, seen them in SH V and sunk quite a few. I just wasn't expecting to see a single liner with 3 DD's, more I was expecting to see at least 2 or 3 of them.
