Wolfpacks?

GWX, October 1940.

As I'm sailing about the BF grid, a convoy is reported with four submarines marked pursuing it. Is this a wolfpack in the making? U99 changes course to intercept and sights the convoy escorts at dusk. A brief dip under the waves allows the hydrophone operator to confirm that this is indeed the large convoy we were looking for...

But, should I hang about for the other subs? Are wolfpacks simulated in GWX? I mean, why bother programming them to appear on the map if they don't really exist? I'd hate to squander a perfect opportunity (and halfway decent weather) for a night attack waiting for subs that aren't going to turn up. But if they do, will they draw off some of the escorts?

Comments please? What should I do?
