If I can't find a target, I like to trade moonshine, er... um... FOOD & WATER, with the locals.

Can you send me where this stuff isn't happening?

Here's my typical situation in 1944:

I was attacking the convoy in the middle. Wounded a merchie and it's fallen out, marked to the south. But time is of the essence because although my original convoy is still headed NNE, here comes KillerKonvoy from the north right down on my position. Looks like I'll get my kill and get punished for it, as my time to the target and the north convoy's at 30 knots aren't that different. Oh, count the escorts. The north convoy appears to have four and there are three in the middle convoy. When the north convoy attacks me I could have seven escorts on top of me! As it turned out the four thought they didn't need any help. This is in the same area where you can't find a seagull. RSRD! Realistic, reduced traffic! Bullschnitzel!

At 2/3 speed you should have a range of over 14000nm in a fleet boat. Also, stop by Midway on your way out and "fill up". You can use flank speed from Pearl to Midway on your way out and from Midway to Pearl on the way back too.
