Wotan and the Battle for Convoy SC 104

Forty-seven ships (SC-104) departed New York City on 3 October 1942 and were met by Mid-Ocean Escort Force Group B-6 consisting of the E and F class destroyer Fame and V and W class destroyer Viscount with Norwegian-manned Flower class corvettes Potentilla, Eglantine, Montbretia, and Acanthus and the Convoy rescue ship Goathland.

Opposing this force was the U-boat patrol group Wotan comprising 8 boats: U-221, U-258, U-356, U-607, U-618, U-661, U-353, and U-254.
It is now the evening of the 14th Oct and Wolfpack Wodan is awaiting the order to attack.

I had one run where we wiped out what looked like the entire damn convoy. It was awesome. However I do notice some mistakes on the AI sub part. Can anyone tell me if they have seen AI subs go to PD with 10 feet of periscope sticking out while DDs open up with machine guns on them? In good weather I think every AI sub was sunk this way before getting within 3km of the merchants.

Also my sub seems to take damage from out of nowhere when diving past 80m. At first I thought I was hitting AI sub but tried mission again and it still happened.

Yes - I think there are a few thing still to be worked on (some have been but stopped for other work).
The scope as you said and the deck gun not firing (no crew)
