The escort stood off and started to circle the tanker, waiting for me to come out of cover. That's when the tanker blew up in a massive explosion. Suddenly, I had all kinds damage and was dead in the water. To top it off, the tanker capsized and took me down with it. It was a spectacular and embarassing way to go.
Tankers do tend to be full of things that go boom in a very big way.
