A couple of things I have noticed about the stock game, one being that the Japanese ships engines sure burn clean. Almost no smoke which is how they were usually first spotted on the horizon before the advent of Radar. Another thing is the complete ineptness of the escorts. After attacking a convoy, I wanted to lure in an escort for a stern chase to get him with a cutie. (Kinda bored) Heading away from him, I couldn't do anything to make him spot me, (He was about 3K yards off) Finally, I momentarily stuck the conning tower out of the water. Waited until a few tracers came my way and then dove again. I let him get to within 1000 yards before shooting. He turned and started a search pattern. One wasted cutie. After this first war patrol, I plan on loading up on the mods.
