I'm pretty sure DC explosions don't make you any harder to detect in SH3. Every time I've tried to use this tactic the enemy always knows exactly where I am and I end up spending a nerve racking time trying to avoid attacks. When I go slow, deep and quiet 9.5 times out of 10 I sneak away without ever being properly deteced.

DD ,DC's & ASW = submarine's worst enemy. :shifty:

Depth , Silence & Slow Evasive manuvers = submarine' best friend :yep:

Don't count on something you don't have,or is broken and don't work. :nope:

Your the Kpt. Your skill and tactics will prevail. :arrgh!:

Start your escape at Flank speed and set off a Decoy when the DCs start exploding. Set your Dive to below 100 meters. The Flank speed will give you a good start down but once DCs stop set to 2kts and Silent Running. Once at 100meters or lower the Thermal Layers will help hide you. Works 95% of the time for me. The other 5% I get damage and flooding but survive.

As I've said I don't have Decoys yet in GWX... but will asap. And, knock on wood, haven't had the need for them yet. I do have the need tho as I've just run headfirst into a Large Enemy Convoy in the cold North Atlantic in Grid BE39. :hmm: We might be scrod soon.
