Default Re: 2 escorts have me at 170m below. Will it ever end?

The convoy must be dozens of km's to the SE by now. The 2 escorts are circling above me, pinging when they can. They're out of depth charges.

I dove to 170m+, in silent running, speed 1kt (tried idling the engine, too) but they just circling around up above like there's no tomorrow.

Any way I can convince these fellas to go back to their convoy?
Book em Danno!!

A fish in the midsection should discourage your so called hunters, if you can get a shot off. Failing that, they aren't gonna follow you all the way home so if they've used up all their DC's maybe just plot a course and stick with it hoping they get fed up and back off. :hmm:

Let us know how it goes. Go get em Avon!
