RE: Many Newbie Questions

<t> Thanks GP. The manual in Section 15.3 were it says "Ships are put into this system (automatic convoys) by the player at Osaka, San Francisco, or Karachi" lead me to believe these were also the debarkation ports for for automatic convoy. Thanks.<br/>

RE: Many Newbie Questions

Does auto convoy sail out of Karachi or Colombo? UI says Colombo but I think manual says Karachi.
