Hour 12 now (real time) of trying to to evade 6 destroyers. 70% Hull Integ...stay at about 110 meters. Installed DC water disturbances after hour 6.... seems to work a little bit. But not enough to shake 6 DDs. The Convoy is completely out of Hydrophone range (about 4 hours ago)...yet pretty much every DD from the convoy is having what TDW calls a DC party...where a Leader DD (or three) just sit at a distance and coordinate the other ships to DC me. I'd have to say that a ship stopping (for 12 hours now) to be the party thrower...is a bit unrealistic. I like the fact that i'm having to wait it out i guess.... but it seems a little early in the war for this for my liking. I could see 2 maybe 3 DDs ..but not 6. I'll keep going till I run out of O2 or Battery if I have to.... my old tactics do little to shake these bastards . longest I've been out of ASDIC contact was about 10 minutes....with an average lost contact about 2 minutes. Changing course several times and keeping engines RPMs at 50 which yields about 1 knot. I do speed up after DC attack...but they seem to Zero in on me as soon as I go for it. I only stay fast for 30-35 seconds. so i'm wondering if the MOD is working.

I just want fresh air and sunshine! hehe
