But man - wouldn't it be cool if it did work?

Would fix something about the game that has been bugging the hell out of me for years
Now, in RSRDC you sometimes get the message that you are to patrol a certain area radius xx miles centered on yy, but feel free to chase shipping outside that radius and return. I'll bet he threw the continuous/non-continuous switch.

And it only makes sense. What would Lockwood say if you returned to Pearl and your patrol report said "radar contact 15000 yards outside patrol radius. Did not pursue."? I believe it would be a most memorable occasion......

As far as the hunter-killer groups, the Japanese didn't have enough DDs to escort the shipping they had. Basically they didn't have the luxury of being able to form hunter-killer groups. I can understand Ducimus putting them in their for sheer difficulty. If it's too much trouble to hunt and kill the hunter-killer groups I don't think it's too bad if they remain. We have bigger fish to fry. If it's easy then let's cut the number of hunter-killers in half or so.
