The thing is also probably date sensitive. By the time wolfpacks seemingly become the norm, in early 1942, you are generally forced to break contact because of radar equipped escorts or the intervention of aircraft.

I bet you're right, thanks. I know in his read me, there's info. similar to this.

My course/speed readings have been accurate. Packs just seem to be more frequent in NYGM under similar circumstances, but maybe not and I don't know why that would be so anyway.(I know it has some scripted into the campaign, but there's not that many).

On an unrelated note, does anyone know if darkwraith's ship fire damage mod in incorporated into GWX ?
