You can still split up the sub groups by sending different MP missions to each group saying that they're patrolling different areas and then maybe bring them all together again for other missions depending on events that occured.

I'd be interested, but there's no way I could do a drive all the way from port to the mission areas in 1x, do my searches in 1x, and then return home 1x. My wife would kill me if I left the computer on and had to wake up and jump out of bed when I hear my computer speakers shout "ALAAAAAAAAAAARM !!!!" several times a night.
Exactly. My idea was not to play 24h a day, but cover a limited range each sesion of gaming. Example: We choose to play in a saturday morning. We start ar Brest and go to the english channel with the intention to block it. That would give aprox 240Km, with a VIIB we can cover in 7 hour unless u want to play with a IIA.... :hmm:
Another approach is: I start from brest, you from cherbourg, the other guy from Calais and we set ameeting point as a wolfpack . Someone discovers a convoy, gives its position and we converge to it.

Thats the spirit. we play until we are up to, then u give me positions, number of fishes, crew status, etc, and the most important, we start at the same time later... no need to play while doing our wives... Contacts will be there again since we are playing the same campaign...

MIssions could be set to meditterraneum, where distsnces are short.

The most interesting point of this kind of gaming is not the sinking of ships itself, but the way to it -- plot interception courses, track their course by hydrophone things like that, and the wolfpack stuff.

Yes if people agree, that would be a GWX event. It would be nice to have installed: GWX 1.03 + carotios map mod (has more cities) and OLC GUI mod (wich I love ) If we have crashes for 3 times, all should have a stock installations ready to start playing. Since our achievements should rely on ou abilities as uboatman, no cameras are allowed ... only 100% realism.
