Default Convoy Size

I started my first career in December '41. It's now November '42. Most of the ships I've encountered have been either lone or sets (2-3) of merchants without escorts. I even sank a lone troopship in the Marianas.

I think as lot has to do with where you're patrolling. Off the Japanese coast I did see mostly escorted convoys. But in the Carolines and Marianas the escorts are often non-existent.
