Okay, I'm gonna go off plunder Loch Ewe this time... A slim chance I'll make it out alive, so I need some help from more experienced lads.
I'll be heading from Bergen, and am going to keep all torps in my VIIC until I arrive in Scotland.
Does anyone know what tactics are best to break into Loch Ewe?

It's October 1942. In other words, semi-professional destroyers. I am investing in some sonar decoy and Alberich before I head out... I do NOT want to die on this one!
1.4 plus harbour traffic and little else.

Thanks in advance! :arrgh!:

Last time I slid onto Loch Eve I sank a small merchant, but she was so shallow that she never dissapeared from the surface and wasn't count on my tonnage :nope:

:-j :-j :-j

One CVE
One CV
One BB
One CL
One DD
One T3
And ALL the fjord guards have RUN AGROUND! HAHAHAHAA! *Manic laughter!!!*

:arrgh!:

Though.. How on earth should I distribute my torpedos... First the CV, then the BB, then CVE and T3, then CL and then... it's probably about time for a trip to the john and get the hell out.

Sounds tempting but no I won't go in there again. It is a place of madness.

I shudder to think of my last voyage there - nestled in fog of the harbor - the destroyers running themselves aground. I remember that nightmare sound - at the pier the sickening hammer of those ships that relentlessly beat themselves against the docks.

I got out of that nut harbor as fast as I could. :doh:

I find going in is not a problem,take out the dd that's patroling the entrance that should attract the second destroyer in there that's in there take that out then it's basically take out everything that floating from carriers,bb;s to T3s.
My problem starts usually on the way out I seem to get the entire RAF on my back the waters there are shallow in the loch i think it;s about 20m and then opens up to about 90m 5 miles out .
