That's correct, the message does come through but there are no units at all of the Japanese task force coming through the Strait. All I see is a few stray merchant ships but no sign of any Japanese heavy surface units coming through.

I tried to do a quick edit, before you posted, and as usual, I are a slow old man, and failed... I made a comment about the group itself on the previous page:

Edit: A little side-note to that. The group is built wide, at 4x across, plus the escorts. Just because the Mission Editor says they'll make it on time, does not mean that they will... The ships are spaced at 1,000 yard apart, to that's a minimum of 3,000 yards wide between the four columns, then add an escort either side makes that 5,000 yards at a minimum. Then the DD have to do their Knuckle turns to check their baffles, that another 1000 yards either side, so now we're 7,000 yards across... real close to three and a half nautical miles wide, making turns through the Masbate and Ticao passes and the Strait... not an easy feat to do... I've never investigated if they do make it through. If I get some time in a few weeks, I might make that trip just to see...

Actually, I just restarted from my previous patrol (giving up about 80,000 tons worth of shipping sunk...)


And lo and behold, I fast forward to June 15th sitting at the mouth of the Strait once again...and this time they showed up!


Just a bug I guess. Maybe they did get stuck.


Not sure if I should give up the 80,000 ton patrol just to sink some warships or not...

messages do not tie up with software, regular occurrence, some I firmly believe are not even based on fact, but Ubi developers bit if 'fun' (actually quite annoying). Like 'Today the Japs invaded Java, coffee will now be rationed'

Default Sonja Yukon Sendan Shi Download?

I am doing research into Japanese convoys in WWII and made my way to this thread in a desperate search for the English translation of Shinshichiro Komamiya's "Wartime Transportation Convoys History." I was told that the RSRDC support folder contains a 3-part PDF of this document, but I am having trouble extracting the downloads and not sure if there is a better way to get the PDFs. Anyone happen to have a lead you can share? It would be much appreciated!

My apologies if this is posted in the wrong section.

Komimaya's work contains the following (where available): depature/arrival times, merchant ship names, escorting warship names, and a brief and sometimes detailed account of the convoys journey...including which particular Allied submarine (or ship) inflicted the losses. There also on index to locate US submarines involved in attacks. The index isn't that great though...

You may PM me if you are interested in obtaining these files. All three files combined are about 3 megs.
Donner's site shows he is still currently active as of 7/2019; so...a PM to him may be advisable.

Thank you. I sent him a PM and will keep my fingers crossed!

Best regards,

yeah...this one is different.
search using "RSRD".
https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/dow...o=file&id=4738

there are a bunch of RSRD mods that can be run on top of other mods such as TMO.

Good Luck!

The Run Silent, Run Deep - The Campaign V4xx Release thread, but the "title" is a misnomer in that the actual releases are v5.xxx, with the 3-digit trailing number referring to whether you are using it on Stock, TMO or RFB.
