[Lazarus95]

I've seen it both ways too, I once hunted down and engaged a huge enemy task force in the strait between Borneo and Celebes during my first war patrol. Managed to sink a 16,000 ton fleet carrier, the only ship that came after me was a seaplane tender. All their destroyers and cruisers just kept on sailing away. Then there are other times where I will sink a troop transport and the 2 escorts come down on me so hard you'd think I had just sunk the emperors personal yacht.
