Well I gotta admit the title may sound weird, but I am actually referring to the speeding up of your periscope targets when the see Mark14 speeding towards them.
So, I'm east of Luzon, on my 4th patrol. I get a radio report of a taskforce headed my way. So, I floor it and head to a headon intercept path.
Two questions come to my mind
- Weather report relation to Radio report.
and
- Task force best intercept position.
So,
I load the game and fail a couple of times after going once too soon, and the other too early. Of course DDs make it tough, and I dont want to lose the element of surprise, since its what all my boat is about - stealth.
The last time, I'm right in the center of the Taskforce. Maybe even too close to the BSs, LCs...
Those of you who read my Allied ports my a@@! thread, will note I broke off the conversation, for an attempt at these once-in-a-lifetime targets opportunity.
Sadly enough, when I'm even inside the taskforce, I cant get a proper shot, without being spotted. And I calculate 4 (yes four Kungo BSs), One Fuso, One Ise. I'm abeam of the first of the kungos, coming in a row. Our separation? 600 meters
Arghhhhh!!! 600 meters , 4 eels away, 3 hit and the fourth misses, and I get this:
And this guy just keeps circling around with his left enignes. He refuses to sink. So, I quit, and post this here.
Anybd knows what speed should I give my eels to compensate for panicked units?
And most importantly, is there a way to make the eels do more damage, since apparently, 3 magnetzundung done nothing.....
Oh, and when do I get the Mark 18? isnt that the electric? Please tell me they cant see it.
