The action is "somewhere off the west coast of Africa"

There is now a 6th player. The "Republique Democratique de Gondwanaland" , which lies just off the map to the south

A few hints: There are heights and depths, and it is quite helpful to me if you specify where you wish your unit to be-
Aircraft/helos V.High- only certain aircraft High Med max alt for helos Low Very Low fixed wing, chance of crash
Generally, the higher you are, the further your sensors can see.
Subs Surface Periscope shallow intermediate deep v deep (only certain subs)
There is a thermocline (the "Layer") between shallow and intermediate. direct path sonar range is halved across the layer.

And to clarify, if I give you a sighting report, it will be a bearing from your detecting unit (bearing as on the compass on the map). I will give the co-ordinates of the detecting unit as well, in the format Easting/Northing , or along, up, if you are hard of thinking........

Latest News- Incognito, the great bastion of Peoples Democracy, has declared war on Plantania, a harmless, inoffensive Islamic Republic. Is it related to the sinking news? Only I and the sinker and sinkee know......
