Something missing

With SH3 there were too many single ship contacts, it was not very realistic except in the early war years.

In SH4 there are no single contacts really to speak of. Either there are sampans (usually two) in tandem convoy, and there are several merchants guarded by at least three escorts.

Problem with this is in the pacific campaign single unescorted ships became MORE common as the war progressed due to destroyers and other excort class ships being pressed to other business. There were of course convoys, but there were apearantly more single or double, unescorted cargo vessles, much more than represented in the game.

Perhaps a mod is needed.
