It makes me wanna cry they decided to put this feature into SH4 instead of SH3!

Japanese escorts have only crappy depth charge racks (and crappy sonar although I don't know if IJN sonar crappiness is modelled or not), and NO forward firing weapons. UK and US escorts are the way to go!

Contrary to Brit DDs fun to be had with Japanese is in their excellent torpedos and solid gunnery (stuff we don't need in SH4 MP)

I was looking forward to playing escort commanders in MP, but quite honestly it does not sound like fun at all - without hedgehog, squid, quality sonar, or the ability to scatter the conwoy your role is just to provide moving target practice for sub dudes

I hope AI has help in land based aircraft ... that would keep the subs down, balancing the poor choice of weapons and poor ASW they had.

MP convoy escorts could call in air strikes too for a better balance ...
