[quote=Falkirion]That gives me an idea! - the reversing emergency surface breach.

Medic, pass me the laudanum ...

I think I'll stay away from the uber-DDs traveling alone - not worth it...

Last night came across a nice taskforce - 3 Kongos and something 8 heavy cruisers along with escorts. I was in a bad position to close (running parallel and they were going 20 knots), but figured what the hell, lets make a run. If I can get within 5000 yards (I know risky, but dark and average fog). At about 7000 yards I see what seems to be signaling between the ships... Only then do the projectiles from the Kongos fall short and far... Scared the crap out hearing those shells come in!!! :cry:

Anyways, the ensueing DD hunt was less effective. The only fixed my position once in about 5-10 runs, then headed for the convoy... :hmm:

What got my guy 'busted' was a radar contact... 3 ships, sailed into position and finally visually spotted a coastal guard.

Figuring he was the escort we continued to work into position. By the time we noticed they had altered course straight for us we popped the scope for a quick look and Yipes !!! Three DD's headed right for us.

Oh yea an aircraft spotted us as well :doh:
