Sometimes they would communicate ship to ship if they were part of a group and even swap movies, but that isn't simulated.

It all depends on how you want to patrol. If you want to mostly just sink tons of shipping and do port raiding, that's OK. Maybe you want to try to do 'historically accurate' patrols (within the limitations of the game).

Whatever you want to do, the main thing is to have fum : )

Happy Hunting!
