Starting in jan 1, 1941. IXC the whole way. DiD.
Crux of the game
- My version of UC with mini convoys with elite DE's and elite HK groups.
- ramped up AI passive hydros a bit, a few other tweaks.
- improved air power, etc etc
- NYGMs damge mod from TW 2. It took alot of experimentation before i finally gave in and used it, although i had to make a few changes. Fixed draft on C3 cargo. Its really 10 meters not 12. Had to cut n paste improved air powers changes into the zone file, and some uboat changes from one of the later hollywoods because the Uboat changes in the TW2 damage mod were centered around how they rezoned the uboats. fixed it so cargo ships will acutaly have cargo on decks, and changed some of the shipping names back to what they orginally were. I like C2 or C3 cargo. I hate IDing everything as mediem or large.
I don't really aim for convoys unless i know they're in the vacinity. I usually go where "BDU" orders me to go. Very rarely will i assign my own patrol grid. Just breaks continunity to me. If theres convoys enroute to where im gonig, or where im going, ill go after them. Ill take on HK groups if theres nothign else to do, but i dont sit around the western approches for days and days waiting for a convoy to appear.
