:up: let her have it, Ace!!

Is it in a convoy or a task force?

I've run into task forces before but usually they are running too fast to end-around. Now guessing right with position reports and getting ahead of a task force and playing the small empty hole in the ocean game is a whole other story :D

i'm sorry to report guys that i couldn't get a shot off at the carrier...was depth charged for what seemed like hours on end...Now im limping off back to brest to atleast celebrate the sinking of a liberty cargo, and a destroyer.

it was in a taskforce...1 carrier and about 5 destroyers.

He who turns and walks away, lives to fight another day. :up:

Benny

Be more aggressive!

Still a good day's catch. :yeah:

Just had my own carrier victory. I intercepted a task force in AK 25 - based on two radio reports, I had the course and speed basically down. It happened to be perfectly calm seas, so I didn't dare approach close. Instead, I lined up the best possible firing solution I could with my approach starting at 6km, AoB ~ 90. By the time I let them LOS, I had dialed 4.6km into the TDC range. I had sent two fish - both T1 FaT 1s, with pattern activation set to 5km. She was a Bogue class and I sent one at her bow and one amidships, both 1m below keeldepth. I had a full 3 or 4 minutes to turn and dive, silent. Both fish cracked keel, and when the 5 escorts that were with her reacted, I was too far away to find. The Bogue was sniped. Nothing like CLEAN DATA!:rock:

Nice! :yeah:...one less carrier for that cigar chopping SOB churchill:haha:

Well, shame on me but i never approach task forces in calm waters.
Too much risk too little gain. If i have a falke on me, i do give it a shot though.
I snipe the leading escort from distance and i send the falke on to the escort carrier.
But my advice is to stay away from such task forces since you have to sacrifice many eels for 20grt max.

I usually hunt lone liberty ships, sailing just above Azores.
