If I ignore the tonnage bar and the orders will there be other ships out there?

Will do.
It no doubt will be a mammoth task as everything appears to be if associated with Ubisoft. Most games instructions usually read; place disc in drawer, follow on screen requests, enjoy.
Not re-build the installation!

In SH3 I could ignore the orders to go to a certain grid and still find plenty of ships elsewhere.
I'm still trying to understand why I should worry about "advancing" to the next phase.
What am I missing?

With OHII you can ignore the orders and sail wherever you like and you will find ships.
By not following orders and thus failing your missions - the game will still advance through the campaigns.

The Indian ocean is the onlt one that will not have shipping unless you go there during the correct campaign.

So yes - you can play a free style career

THANK YOU TREVALLY!!!

That is the first time anyone has answered my question directly!

I have the WOS mod which includes OH so I think I'm good to go!



I will finally feel good about going out and playing in "free" mode.
