I've been doing all the other Single Missions from the stock game (haven't found anymore problem children), and I don't know if it's my imagination or what, but they are *tough* now, compared to what I had been doing with them previously... Seems the destroyers though are either super-human, or incapable of operating a sonar console, one or the other, with little in between. I just had two toughies come after me, and it came down to a me or them, so I did get them, but after those two were gone, the four that were left acted like little scared chickens, running away from the farmer with an axe in his hand... I got quite a bit more fight out of the two merchants that were left. The two biggest, of course, and apparently the "key" to completing the primary objective of the mission. I've sunk 2 DD and 4 merchants, and left the other four DDs still looking for me, going round and round in circles. Not cool, but "to my advantage" thunk I... these two merchants are running, so I surfaced (after we're a-ways from the DD convention). They're 6200 yards away, and they are firing on me. The gall. Straddling me too, so I went back down. Tried again a while later, when they were 7200 yards away. They started shooting at me. Mind you, I'm going AWAY from them. Back down I go. we'll try again later for an end-around... Anyway, an SM, last on the list of the "stock" missions "Borneo Convoy". I think you're in a Balao... Been at it for an hour plus... I'm looking forward (what?!?!!? are you NUTZ???) to cdrsubron7's Aleutian Islands missions, crazy as that sounds...
btw, perty ships, max.
