DD Disappearance

Rockin Robbins · 03-25-08, 07:27 AM

Well, I'm behind you, having started my U-Boat career before TMO came out. I haven't gone back to port yet so can't install TMO. I don't know if it would be a good idea to install TMO while I'm running a U-Boat campaign anyway, and I hate the idea of installing and uninstalling mods depending on what kind of career I'm running at the time. What if I want to alternate days?

I can see a dual SH4UBM installation coming on: one for U-Boat, one for Fleet Boat. I'm still at sea in Kraken in my last patch 1.4 cruise. I won't be phasing out 1.4 until I return to base on that one. Then I guess it's surgery time.

But to answer your question, if it's 1944 or 1945 the Japanese DD fleet should be cut down to size by now and you should be seeing a motely collection of escorts, featuring the hated subchaser.

Actually it's between Dec. 1941 and August 1942. Still little or no DDs. What did Ducimus do this time me wonder?:hmm:

What the title says

Doesn't seem normal to me either.

I'll chalk it up as another Twilight Zone episode.

Ships exploding is my fault. I never ran into it, but i knew it was possible. Its due to the wave settings.

Traffic, is ALL RSRD.

It isn't nice to argue with RSRD!

Good that at least clears up the exploding DDs. I also found out the deck gun have some uses after all. They can actually destroy a Small Old Tanker. I ran out of torps in the middle of the Banda Sea and decided what the hell. The ship took some good hits and blew up real nice and bright. Now, all I have to do is find that worm hole those ships are disappearing into.
