is this just a coincidence or are these dd's able to see through storms?
im using gwx 1.03 and im in sep 1941

Its the game.. In all reality many many U-boats attacked during night ON THE SURFACE!!!

In this game with HEAVY FOG and the middle of the night, they still spot you right away..

Its the game not how it was done.

Attacking at night on the surface was actually the preferred method.....at least until the widespread fitting of radar

so are some or all dd's equiped with radar as early as 1941? i was under the impression that uboats were successfully conducting surface attacks right up until late 42 early 43.

maybe someone from gwx could shed some light on this.

I play NYGM and you can do surface attacks in that in early 1943. It just depends on how many DD's have radar.
