RE, number of DC's carried by Tin cans in TM:

The number they carry, is stock. I did not modify the amount they carry, which grossly exceeds the historical amount. Why not? They drop them way too fast. From accounts ive read, JP escorts were a little selective when they dropped. If i was aware of a way to lower their "rate of fire" then i would have lowered the number of DC's they carry. The bottom line here, is they dump them overboard a little too fast, and if theyre payload was historical, theyd be out of DC's in no time at all, and then just mill about, doing little more then being annoying. I wanted them to retain their "teeth".
