YIKES just increased the depth charge max radius (for the destroyers) to 80 --that certainly did the trick!!! can't get any where near a convoy to attack--blam sunk---i'll try 60 see if that has any loopholes--

found the depth setting for the bombs and airbourne DCs for the aircraft and followed the airpower mods lead and set the depth to 25/30 meteres --that works very well--nice one

have to remember here that i had previuosly set the max depth for all the subs to 100 meteres in an attempt to give the DD's a chance--so perhaps i would have survived if i had been able to go deep and maneuver a bit more--but i'm lazy and want to maintain the ever so slightly faster pace of gameplay allowed when limiting the subs max depth--(it doesn't take 10 minutes to get up the scope depth from 100 metres if you see what i mean)

you can get some sort of half decent danger out of the DD's if you throw the rule book away and hit them with a sledge-hammer mod
