I think I am about to resign my commision and ask for a transfer to Rommels Desert Rats.

Set out from st. nazaire on november 2....rain+15 mps wind....head towards my patrol-area...rain+15 mps wind.......reach my patrolarea........rain+15 mps wind....stalk a medium cargo for 250 nm south of my patrol-grid....rain+15 mps wind.......finally give up and head back to my grid........encounter a task force on the way back and am in perfect firingposition.....but guess what......thats right......RAIN + 15 MPS WIND.....looking out of the scope, I wouldnt be able to see one of these newfangled "Atomic bombs" going off 200 off my bow

Join the navy and see the world......the world is large, green and flat........with lots and lots of precipitation.....

If this keeps up, im seriously considering cleaning the muzzle of my Luger with my mouth......

Have a nice day

PS:Why do you hate me, God??

Sounds like youve got the Realism turned up to high!

You know whats REALLY funny? Whenever you start a patrol everythings perfect then you get your first convoy or contact report and it all goes down the Drain

It's true; the starting weather should be randomized. However, the SH3 Weather mod lets you set it yourself, so that's something.

I've had similar weather on many of my patrols, and have thought of quitting the patrol early. But I hung in there and on most patrols got a decent tonnage haul.
