id only been out of port for like 5-6 days , on route to my mission, didnt even get to the mission, because i came across a taskforce. Im sure the admiral would of loved my explanation of why i continued on my mission with no fish
so is there an updated map anywhere to download /print out

Put yourself in the Admiral's place. A new captain has gone out of port, but instead of getting to his mission, 2 days out of port he encountered a Jap battle fleet and sank a couple of lousy battleships. The captain returned with a cool 40,000 tons and 2 BB's swimming with the fishies. What can you say to him? You idiot, you didn't take pictures of x harbor? You came back with your secret agent? You didn't sink a couple of merchies for 10,000 tons? No, you must smile, hand the guy his medal of honor, promotions for his crew, bronze stars and silver stars all around. Now you can chew him out if you wish.
But I think you will bite your tongue, smile, tell him he's a good dog and send somebody else out to do what he was supposed to do.
Success is the ultimate answer for under-achievement.  |
OK , im standing here im my admirals shoes , and along comes the captain only 4 days ago i sent to patrol the Luzon straight. when i ask him this he replys that on route to the straight he ecounterd a task force so he sent a contact report.
he then recieved orders to intercept.
so he intercepted the task force and sank 2 light cruisers and 7 small passenger carriers(obviously a invaison force)
having run out of fish and quite possably saving Luzon from an early invaison this captain then returns to port to rearm to go back out and complete his main order which was to patrol the Luzon straight
id say that in my admirals shoes id say well done , give him a pat on the back and send him back out there
senario 2

He then completely ignored the task force , continued on his mission
"MP's !!!! throw this man in the Brig"
seriously though i had 1 objective, patrol Luzon straight, after sending in the contact report i get a second objective. So i use all my fish and inflict heavy losses to and invaison force, so whats wrong with coming back to rearm to complete the first objective.
or am i to patrol with just my deck gun
