I hate the weather...

In heavy fog I always travel submerged. Too often I rammed other ships which I (or rather Bernard) spotted to late or had very close calls.

Bad side is it takes a long time to make some way, good side is that you can detect ships with the hydrophones earlier than by spotting them on the surface => more contacts.

:hmm: The perfect convoy attack is in bad weather with 5ms wind and medium fog...and ofcourse let it rain.

I guess that probably the worst storm is, when you "submerged" while surfaced!

I had my watch crew covered by waves, but nothing bigger then my conning tower, but I guess that things could get even worse. And my gus were onyl reached because of the wavy see and not the total hight of the waves.

Have you read this thread by CB..

It offer a good workaround for the persistant weather problem. I have used it on both my installs GW + NYGM 2.2 and it works well.
