I missed Operation Cerburus, how?

Fellow kaleuns,

I was informed of Operation Cerburus to take place at 11 februari, 1942, just around dark.
Now, I have visited Brest the 10th and sighted the three battleships. Then, I headed just outside the port and waited for two days (yes, untill the 12th), but I did not see any battleship go past. When I came back, two of them were gone, with just one still moored off.

Is this a bug in the game? Was I too late?

Confirmation, at least two battleships were present before the start of Cerburus (other is on the right)

I would say you stayed too close to the ships starting way point.
Go at least 50km out to sea and see what happens:hmm:

Don't feel bad. The Brits almost missed it too!

LOL that's hilarious :rotfl:

I lost a diesel engine prior to the operation, no way I could keep up with their 25 knots anyway!
Thanks for the 50km spawn advice, I'll try that
