Convoy Staging Grounds?

[Safe-Keeper]

I'm not suggesting you model them gather, I'm just saying model a stationary convoy and then have it disappear.

Not to mention the realism factor. Staging areas were very heavily protected. How many u-boats actually managed to get into one and sink anything?

But then again, how many u-boats got into Scapa Flow or Loch Ewe or near the Normandie beaches after D-Day?

Yep I understand that S-K but it would be a one in a million chance of the player seeing it
To model that one static convoy once every 2 weeks or so would make the campaign files at least 10 times bigger than they are now

None (except for Scapa Flow once, and that was well-planned with help from Doenitz himself). My point exactly; these things may be modelled, but they should be impossible to carry out.
