Default BH mod for Dark Waters

My Mod for Dark Waters.

Can now pull off night surface attacks on convoys in historically accurate manner, including from inside convoy under proper conditions. Includes other changes as well and limited wolfpack operations against historic contacts such as convoy SC-7, HX-79 etc.


See link README for full details.

I’m very interested in your DW mod. I have an interest in Surfaced Night attacks too. Most of my reading about these is WWI type.

They hunted for me, but seemed not to good at it. Could be that it was 1940
maybe. Also i dived to get away after firing, so that may of helped.


2days or so later:
We bumped into a very large convoy indeed. Started late afternoon, bad weather (WS15).
was able to sneak past flank escort (flower). We got very close surfaced, so much so that I decided to dive and continue.
Escorts would of spotted me for sure without this mod.
Battle begins with dusk approaching. Sink 4 ships, and two escorts are searching way off behind me.
When darkness takes over I wanted to see if sailing back into the convoy possible while surfaced.
And I could. Sailed past a flower corvette at 900m. Merchants didn't seem to notice us.
