Back to SH III?

Hi Jimbuna and Kodaita,

I should have to agree with both of you that SH III is not totally realistic and as I say I am only just into my third patrol but to find such a prevalence of 'Neutral convoys' is something that, as far as I am aware, never happened. I am not going to say that there may not have been an occasion when a neutral ship may have sailed in convoy but the convoys were essentially allied. Certainly the Irish never sailed in convoys made up of Irish ships, and in the sighting in my second patrol they did not have any escorts, and in the present incident 3 British out of 39 ships is somewhat unusual, and moreover to have a British escort!

Anyway I've had my moan, and unlike here at home, I won't get beaten over the head, and as always there will always be help and advice here. And GWX does look good dosn't it? Now for a beer, put on my old steel helmet and wait for the shooting to start.
