Default GWX's most heavily escorted convoy. Beware!

It is no secret I believe the convoy escorts are too easy and too few in GWX.
So, I have started a complete rebuild of the RND file
When I got to RND group 86 and came upon this pack of escorts I knew I found a mistake or one heck of a practical joke. Here, check it out!

[RndGroup 86.RndUnit 29]
Type=3
Origin=American
Side=0
CargoExt=-1
CargoInt=-1
CfgDate=19390801
No=75
Escort=true
SpawnProbability=100
CrewRating=3

[RndGroup 86.RndUnit 30]
Type=3
Origin=American
Side=0
CargoExt=-1
CargoInt=-1
CfgDate=19390801
No=75
Escort=true
SpawnProbability=100
CrewRating=3

[RndGroup 86.RndUnit 31]
Type=3
Origin=American
Side=0
CargoExt=-1
CargoInt=-1
CfgDate=19390801
No=75
Escort=true
SpawnProbability=100
CrewRating=3

There are also some British escorts (hello the Yanks and Brits could not get along so escorted separate convoys on separate areas)

But with 5 Brits and 225 Yank DEs I would assume this is one convoy we should steer clear of.

You will forgive me if in this one case rather than increase the number of escorts I tone them down a little to maybe 12-15 :rotfl:

Can you find this convoy and post some pics? PLEASE!

Wow imagine the starshells/searchlights if it was nighttime. Should chew down the mightiest rig's framerate!

Gah we're moving to Australia next week (yaay!) but my 'puta will be all packed up in a container somewhere for the next month or so. No GWX for me. (booo!)

Guess I'll have to live off whats posted in the screenshots thread.

(honestly, i think theres a cap on how many escorts will attack you at once. in the neighborhood of 5, + or - an escort. Rest would just go on their way)

Umm...I don't get it. I have not played around with the mission editor and so I have no idea what any of that means. Are you saying there's a convoy with 225 escorts? Sheeshk!
