Thanks for the note Armistead, but now I'm even more disappointed

One aspect of the game that's never been fixed is harbor raping, but I do think Trav's mod helps. I redid a few harbors like Truk, more shoreguns, subnets, minefields, subkiller groups, etc., so basically impossible to get in and out alive.

It would be a easy, yet time consuming mod to do, but maybe someone will, but again, I think Trav's additions will make harbor raiding a lil more fun.

I think most new players go througha harbor raiding stage for easy tonnage, later it becomes boring, so others don't take advantage. I know I did my fair share the first year I played.

One of these days I'm going to play again.....

Default Alrighty then

Thanks for the note on your mods IGD. I may go back to Truk if I'm looking for an easy big tonnage total. I did give Koror a try last night as I'd heard there was a battleship anchorage there, and that was much more interesting to begin with as a pair of subchasers were patroling the deep water channel where I'd decided to enter. But after sinking those, not much else happened, and the harbor there turned out to be heavily populated with freighters, but the only warships I saw were the ASW craft that were patroling there. After poking around and finding nothing interesting I left by running over the reef on the west side after sunrise, and the only thing I had to worry about were aircraft, of which there is an annoying amount all around the Palaus it seems.

This is definitely the case for me anymore for the most part. I did alot of raiding up in Kushiro on Hokkaido after I found out that it was always loaded with shipping, at least in TMO. It also seems the game doesn't much like it when I leave a half-dozen or more wreaks behind in the shallow water of a harbor. It runs hashy after that and once even crashed when I tried to dock at Pearl after leaving about eight wreaks behind me at Kushiro.
