ORIGINAL: jmalter LoBaron, I was looking for that 'threat table' in the manual last night, couldn't find it, can you give me a Ch# or page#? I did not find it either. Is it possible that there was one in the old WitP manual? Anyways, the closest match to what I was describing is Chapter 6.2.4 "PATROL/RETREAT AND MAX REACT RANGE", and the ongoing chapters. Weird, I was sure there was some pretty detailed table. [&:] in the manual or not, TFs don't move at full speed when being set on mission speed and being spotted. Until just recently I've never heard this before (amazingly in all these years) and it's just wrong. Noone playing Allied or Japanese will notice any difference in fuel consumption. I've just tried to run a convoy for ten turns, mission speed, then gone back to turn 1 and ran the same convoy to the same target for ten turns. Head to head, there were three PBY squadrons spotting the convoy EACH turn SEVERAL times. Guess what, after ten turns, 100% the same. Rumors, nothing else. Ppl can believe what ever they like, I'm fine with if they think their neighbour is an Alien. edit: latest offical patch
