Default Little surprises

1. During the Total Germany campaign there was this lone British DD waiting, above all else, near the small island at the mouth of Wilhelmshaven. I had decimated half of a medium sized unescorted convoy and looks like he was waiting in ambush. I torpedoed him to Davy Jones.
2. During Operation Wesserubung there seems to be German DD patroling around the mouth of Narvik. Can't remember any German warships during my first try of the campaign.
3. There was a mini-battle inside Trondheim (hope that's correctly spelt) between 3 German DDs and five British ones. I almost got killed in that fight with DCs.
4. Here's not a surprise...I can't find any battleships.

About the Battleships, they're mostly parked and the only way to find them is to head to major ports with ship icons on them (these are capital ships) mostly you'll bump into a big a**ed BS but take it slow and low, and avoid the DEs...

And about the other intel you threw in, I'm not quite sure what to make of it.. if you're referring to the game as buggy, well, correct.

Playable, , yes but you have to waste your computer in order to win..

Actually I found that battleship sailing out of Narvik. I fired 4 torps and only one hit the fore part and it sank. Those DDs went after me like mad.
