Phew, 6-8 Hours of Wasserbombing.
And i play not in suicide Modus or with IRAI.
I destroyed 1 damaged Dido CL, 2 Destroyers and damaged a Clemson. Luftwaffe claimed a Dido, 4 Destroyers and damaged another Dido (my later Target).
British Navy claimed about 7 own Destroyers and a Dido.
First Taskgroup was o.k. and nice to see, Luftwaffe attac the TF really hard, i had a good chance between the Ships and their Defence Movement, to go to Periscope Depth and fire some Torpedoes. At Sundown, one Destroyer left, but i had no Torpedo anymore. I go to 150m, silent Running and move slow away. But he get me, ever and ever again. After 2 Hours, a second Destroyer came to help, but he was the first Ship from an incoming second TF.
After two Hours, about 15 Ships try to bomb me to the Moon. 150m, Silent Running...
So i decide to use the Time Compression and move slowly ahead to Syracuse, to wait for the mornign, the Luftwaffe and the italian Destroyers. In this Time the Taskforce reduced her Ships by 8, i thought, if i reach Syracuse, nothing left. But 04:20 in the morning they left me, i think to reach their Port to get the good english Breakfast.
Is it better to use IRAI in this Case? Cause i dont want to make the Game harder, i want to see nice Waves, Weather, navigate by myself and torpedoe one or two Merchants a week.
Mission was the first, i should sail to the Eastern Mediterranean and destroy some Merchants, 1941.
