Now, of course the hardest I've had it is at 51% realism. That's good enough for me. If I really wanted to get my butt kicked I'd go all the way to 100! But, though I was in the Navy for 10 years, I was a Skimmer, not a Bubblehead!!!! :rotfl:
I served on Targets, not Boats.

But goes to show, if you want it easy GWX or No GWX you can make it easy, or you can crank it up.
One thing people do need to realize: takes practice and patients to sneak into a convoy. If you have neither, than go to a FPS or Flight sim. Things happen faster. I've been on 6 month cruises, and yah boy, they can be boring.

God, I just looked at my Avie! Dude looks like he came from a Zombie convention! LOL!
