Do you mean save the game?
I'm no sinner so I don't save the game (no offence Nattydread)

I don't use the map with the shipping lanes on it.. hell, I didn't even look in the box to see if there's one in it.I just installed the game and went on from there.
Note: I don’t want to know if there’s one in it.

In SH 3 I used it but that kinda spoiled the game for me… went out, finished my assignment and went to THE LANES to get me some tonnage.


Basically I do the same now but this time it’s ten times harder. It’s by choice I know.
Thats why it made it so hard for me after 5month at sea, to find myself crossing the path of the 2 convoy's.
I never thought I'd come across them at 1/3s of f the voyage home. That being, coming from Honshu, going back to Pearl, about 1 grid to the left past the last Japanese occupied island with the airbase.



Any way’s….

<----- I couldn’t add this smile to the thread because I ran out of smiles to add. (Only allowed 12 in a post).
So I think some of you might have misinterpreted that last part.. I’m not about to throw my towel in the errrrrrm…..sea.

That might be but as I had my SD radar operative in the brig (That be the machine gun position as they forgot to add a brig to the sim) I checked the radar myself and both times they where hits… just on the outer edge of the radar set to 20000.
For some of you who might wonder what happened to my SD radar operative..
He got court-martialled and is now spending the rest of his pitiful life scrubbing subs with a toothbrush.

As for me,
I’ve set sail with my new sub and am out there some where’s and have forsaken democracies I’m on a full hammer and sizzle regime now.
