Cool, I have a save right now a couple of game days back not deleted yet that has 15 meter/sec winds. I had managed to take out a Nippon Maru (10,000 ton) baby, (3 torps fired point blank 600 yards constant bearing approach, all 3 hit, one was a dud...) Took a while to go down, with an escort in the area, which I was deathly afraid was Bungo Pete (TMO/RSRDC) You're saying I gotta risk hell and high water just to use the Ctrl-N combo... Wow: LOL

I've since then advanced on purpose without waiting because 0100 I got an Ultra dispatch re:IJN heavies out of Truk headed to Tokyo and reaching a certain position in 3 days time, and I'm east near Bungo Suido. I would not use it in that situation since I consider that cheating myself out of the challenge of getting back over in position even in high seas and hoping for a little better weather somewhere along the way... it paid off, I'm gonna make it on time and the weather dropped to 9 meters/sec... doable for me if I can manage to be in front of them figuring them to be fast movers.
