Gotta love the randomised convoys when they call for a number of ocean liners. I've only seen that once before - love the screenshot!

Jimbuna never fired a shot.

Once had the lone Aquitania coming right at me with 20 plus knots, in the middle of the Atlantic. Had I not dive and get into attack position, we might have collided. That was real lucky.

Imo, if you use such a big ship for carrying mail, you cannot deny that the brittish people does take their mail serious !!

I played (and finished) '39 careers in many different sets of SH3. The original mint installation, 1.4b, GWX 2, 3. Never saw her once, heck I mean that's why I keep playing. Not in the open seas hot spots, not in the ports, nothing.

Read through all posts I could find, but I have no match. And she's definitely not in Portsmouth in the very first days or weeks of the war as claimed by many.

Am I doing something wrong, should I check on something? Should I add something somewhere? I mean like I saw some 2MB mod called "cUNARD R.M.S. Aquitania" which seems to be a bunch of files for the data folder.

Right now I'm playing 1.4b. Not that I don't like GWX I love it, but the sound really ruins it. Can't stand it for more than a single mission, just IMO.

Help please, I really want to meet Aquitania.

Aquitania is a NLUS vessel in the Sea folder:

Here she is in Portsmouth on new years day 1940:

There are many more examples in the scripted campaign layer but it would be pointless going there seeing as how my examples are all GWX related.
