Default boring fleet encounters

Hi,
got a question about fleet encounters. In every case when I`m encountering massive british fleet units, it is one battleship protected by 6 or 8 destroyers in a circle. I`ve never seen enemy cruisers or real fleet movements with cruisers and battleships (or carriers) together. Isn`t that strange? Has someone an idea how to change that?
Thanks!

It's making you second guess attacking them. So I would say it works.

Hi Hoster
I agree with you.
And furthermore you can from the pattern supplied from the sound guy guess quite precisely, what ships the fleet or convoy contains, more or less without raising the scope. Without knowing very much about this, I wound think, that more patterns for fleet manouvres were used in real life.

Especially at the speed they're moving. If you aren't right in front of them or have to catch up to them, and you're submerged... forget it.
