If I have a speed advantage I run parrallel to their course until they're well behind me (about 135 or 225 relative). Then I come about 30 degrees right or left so I'm working in ahead of them. Just keep nudging your course to put you ahead but out of visual range. Needless to say, if I have radar this approach is greatly simplified!

I typically try to dive ahead of the formation but then instead of heading straight for them, I angle off to one side by a few degrees so I'll be positioned off one flank of the convoy/task force. The when they get close, I turn back in for my approach.

If I only have a 1-2 knot speed advantage it's very difficult to do.

As for you checking 1.3 out some more Jace: I'm glad in a selfish way! You do some great work with you mods and I'd hate for them not to be compatible with 1.3. Just want you to know that you're appreciated by all members of my crew .

And Tater: DL'd your Campaign mod and am checking it out. I'll let you know my thoughts after I've had some time with it. So far--it looks Great!!!! Thank You!

Cheers!
