Speaking of greed , I was chasing a convoy (actualy a damaged tanker at the end of it - not enough eels for bothering with the convoy), when I spotted a fast liner.



Since I don't often see a liner, I decided to go after her and forget the convoy. On my chase I ran into the convoy's escort, who almost blocked my path. Blind from greed, I continue at flank speed, only slightly altering my course in hope that the escort won't spot me. She did.

I quickly dived and managed to escape. Deep below, I continued my chase. Then the convoy changed course and passed directly above me. When I heard the damaged tanker going towards me, the greed overwhelmed my better judgement. The escorts were far away, so I blew the balast tanks and went from 200m to periscope depth and sank the tanker.

That didn't please the escorts, and two of them kept me below for three hours. By the time I surfaced, the liner was long gone.
