Were the ships sunk icons red ?

Did US Navy ships escort english convoys that early? I could imagine that they did near their eastcoast, but off the coast of Ireland?:hmm:

Goddang it! I was hoping for a response more along the lines of 'your prob just a fantastic skipper who is making perfect use of moonlight and skill to stay undetected!' A glitch kind of takes away the gloss a bit. Ship sunk icons were red and cant imagine a german convoy sailing towards liverpool!!! Any last hopes its a dumb escort before I restart the patrol?

You're surely an outstanding Kaleun

, but I've always been fascinated by such "riddles".

I just think its real funny that after all this time that SH3 is still kicking out what i call weirdies

That is odd.

I had two destroyers run themselves aground the other day while trying to get me in a harbor. Hilarious.

By the way, I find your language in your thread title somewhat objectionable. You should have said "Escort commander more pussified than me." Please, we have some standards, you know.

Here's another trick sail as close to land/harbour wall as you can and DD's/etc will promptly run themselfs aground so much for the uber ai lol:rotfl:

I'll occasionally get an escort / harbour defense that will just circle me, pinging me for ages, but just won't attack. After a long time the air defences come in, and I figured that he was just reporting my position, but the bombing starts miles away from my position. Go figure.
