Rum is too sweet for me bones, merc4ulfate. If I was still a drinking man, it would be Scotch Whiskey. Maybe Irish Whiskey that disappears as it goes down... Ah yesh - but too expensive...

OK, s7rikeback has found an issue, done some edits, and we are both doing testing to make certain we have desired behavior. We don't want to go from them not seeing you at 700 yards on the surface at 10 knots, to them bombing you while cruising at 160 foot depth, when the airplane was 12,500 yards away and saw your boat...

In the meantime, for those departing Manila on their first missions, do you guys think this would suffice as a message? You still have your orders summary - in this case "Patrol Masbate Area for ten (10) days", and this:


Departure time 0800 hours, message four minutes later.


In the meantime, this group is departing ahead of me, headed for quieter waters:


Convoy headed for Verde Island Passage.


While looking at the NavMap, there is a "Task Force" reported behind me:


Two Panay River Boats patrolling the harbor.


Several weeks later, one would be sunk, while the other was scuttled several weeks after that. The Japanese refloated and repaired it, then put it in service again...
