Default Convoys SS 44..

Here's just a few Bubble that I had loaded. Most I need to upload to photobucket, cuz I just use em for myself, but will load tomorrow, but thought I would load a few. Anyone else find good convoys, post your SS so others can find them.

This is the Java Inv. Force..It has over 50 ships, maybe largest. I've got a better one of it showing contacts, but this one has the date.


Same group, as the battle progresses..

Before the battle of phillippines sea, all the capital ships sit lined up in one long row with no escorts in Tawi Tawi..water is shallow and planes will kill you during the day...they also attack at night, but no problems. You'll find both Yamato class, 2 Hiryu's and rest are carrier escorts...so if you like to harbor rape.

Beginning of war out of Manila, often you'll get a patrol to the far side near San Bern...I never found crap in that zone..until...It was after patrol was over, but I found the invasion force...had at least 4 Chistose in it.

Geesh, bet I have 200 SS's like this...have to do for awhile.

Sorry I need to get into the habit of ss before attacking. This convoy was packed close together so it was hard to miss with the fish. In the confusion I'm not sure if I missed one Maru and hit another or if the first one exploding blew the other up but I got credit for them which would be unusual, normally credit is not given if you don't hit em'


Heading SSE Slow no DD's only minesweepers and subchaser's escorting

THe best ones you can find RSRD in Formosa 44 and 45, shallow water and nothing but Type AB escorts with 6 Y guns...lucky if you survive.



Another Battle of Philippines Sea..best in the game.

Are you using RSRD mod. If corrects all the convoys, so you'll run into correct convoys...and big ones.
