Your submarines are much more successful than mine...

I think it depends how dense your area patrol is (how many hexes the patrol radius is) and how good the subs are. All my modern U-boat squadrons are patrolling near Scapa Flow, as well as a squadron (or two, I can't remember) of less capable ones. I only have one or two U-boat squadrons patrolling outside of the Scapa flow area. So I had a pretty solid patrol (4-6 boats, at least half of them my most capable) right off Scapa.

Plus, since I have PMed with one of the developers, it seems that the messages aren`t already working as they should be. He thought (but wasn`t absolutely sure) that there should be messages if ships are torpedoed or mined, when on the campaign screen. Would be a nice feature. Maybe we should add this suggestion to te support system.

The message I got was "XX DD is sinking". I figured it had to be subs doing the sinking, as they were DDs I had noticed patrolling around Scapa.

Yeah,

that`s what I get too. But as I have heavily Mined the Dover straights from the Flander U-Boat minelayers, I`m not sure if they are torpedoed from my subs on area Patrol or from my minefields (I too mined the entries to Heligoland bay)

But as I said, with coming patches we hopefully will see Messages like "DD xx sunk by torpedo (or better U-Boat XY)" and "DD xx sunk from mines at position xx,yy)
