Not to forget the giant of the upper depths. When he's gasing, planes explode and small green people with extra long necks start running through the woods...

You've only had a ghostship, i had a task force vanishing. I watched them (map contact) coming up the western scottish coast, moved to intercept, had sound contacts of multiple warships heading my way and all the sudden... zilch, gone with the wind and fallen from the edge...

Good one!

Not really. I've loaded later a savegame and watched this task force tour around Scapa to the Firth of Forth. I was lurking south-west of Scapa during the first encounter, so...

So....check the mission editor to ensure there is no % chance scripted into the possibility of said event (delete at final waypoint).
