Subs intercepting enemy fleets when set to RAID

Post by dreinker66 »

Scenario: I send out a German sub unit in RAID mode to raid Allied convoys by placing it one of the convoy lanes between the US and the UK. The sub sinks some merchants and even a convoy escort. So far so good. During his turn my opponent rushes over a CL/DD fleet to within a hex of my sub, and my sub happily intercepts the CL/DD and engages in combat. I really don't want my sub to do this. I want it to stay away from enemy fleets and just focus on skulking and sinking convoys, and I thought that is what being in RAID mode would do. Am I doing something wrong, or is this by design?

It's a bug, done in next patch.
The lark, signing its chirping hymn,
Soars high above the clouds;
Meanwhile, the nightingale intones
With sweet, mellifluous sounds.
Enough of Stalin, Freedom for the Ukraine !

I have stopped counting the number of thread for this one... [:D]
