That is just flavor text, of course. I would also suggest putting the mission in the folder "Warsaw Pact" so that it's properly sorted (something a lot of modders ignore). :steamhappy:

Leitwolf, sure--it appears in the briefing and the mission success congratulation screen. Seeing how this is being translated from German (if I'm not mistaken) I assume it was just a small mistake, but something to consider. From the other side, it would be a little awkward to refer to "America" or "the American Navy"--it would be the United States, and especially the United States or U.S. Navy. Likewise, the country would be called "the Soviet Union", or the Union, or the USSR even; unlike in the United States example, "Russia" is no where in the country's name (it is the name of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic, a constituent part of the USSR); likewise, there is no "Russian Navy" the way we're thinking of (certainly not one with nuclear attack submarines); only a Soviet Navy (or "Soviet Military Maritime Fleet", or even "Red Fleet" informally; it was not called the Red Army by this time either).

Hey Synthesis, thanks so much for your detailed feedback :steamthumbsup:! Im really glad to hear you enjoyed the mission. You're absolutely right with your critique - there are definitely still a few things that slipped through that could be improved. I've already adjusted parts of the text to make it feel a bit more believable. Could you let me know exactly where the phrase "the Russian Navy" appears? I’d like to fix that as soon as possible.

A very fun little convoy raiding mission, good way for learn submarine tactics if you're not familiar with them. My only critique is that the flavor text is a bit off--there's no reason they would call themselves "the Russian Navy" ("Soviet Navy", "Northern Fleet", "Severomorsk", or even just "the Navy" would all be more correct). I'm a little curious as to why the German diesel boats would be "seasoned", but the Soviet nuclear attack submarines would only be "trained", but I imagine you have your reasons for that. A good scenario overall!

Good mission, I enjoyed it and 2 subs are all you need. BZ

Hey Fre3dysbro, thanks for the positive review and I'm glad you enjoyed it!

If I come up with a good idea for a mission pack, I'll keep your words in mind :100:. Feel free to check out my other operations.

A lot of fun. Play nice with 2 subs (like stealth17 suggested) as a beginner and is quick. Like it! Maybe do a mission pack ;) :steamthumbsup:

@Leiwolf: Certainly! The video is now up - https://youtu.be/IA457kmAw2w

Update my mission: Reduced the Soviet submarines to 2 (Thanks to Stealth17 for the feedback! :lunar2019grinningpig:). Can I link your video in the scenario when it goes online on your YouTube channel? That would be great!
Stealth17 19 Mar @ 7:32am 
Glad to hear I could help :).

I've recorded a video on the scenario and reduced the subs to just 2 for myself.

Hey Stealth, thanks for your feedback! I originally built the mission for myself to learn the basics of handling submarines and thought I could also publish it. To make it harder, you can definitely reduce the number of submarines. I thank you for your tutorials, they have helped me a lot in building my own missions :flashbang:!

Good mission, albeit a bit easy. I reduced the number of player controlled submarines from 5 to 2 and still managed the mission easily.
What made you decide to give the player 5 subs?
Leitwolf  [author] 13 Mar @ 4:10am 
Thank you :lunar2019grinningpig:! Enjoy my other missions and give some feedback!

I love this location for sub ops and this was a nice tasty mission - thanks!
