By the way I shoot first from about 6000 to 8000 yards away, dive to 300 all ahead flank move in front of them while the DD chase where they thought I was and reload at general quarters. Once I am dead ahead of them it is back to periscope depth fire some more sink some more.
I'm extremely aggressive in my attacks. It is a bit like the old Sprint and Drift tactic. If you try again Propbeanie, after your first run drop to 300 feet all ahead flank and move to be in front of the CV's. If you are done with your attack then go to 300 feet all ahead flank and leave the area by the bearing that has the least traffic and see how far you get. Maybe I am just dealing with a corrupt save and something is triggering the CTD while I leave.

That's what I'm going to do then, and no more "Silent Running" on the Balao...

I'll have to make some more careful observations of that. I do, however, think that DC will go straight to work on flooding and repairing those bulkheads before going to the non-structural stuff. This seems to be what I have seen when the DC team are left to choose for themselves with no input from me.  |
Finishing what they were working on at the time of the assignment makes sense, as does the fact that there are so many people the DC team can hold, that they all can't fit in the bilge to work on the pump anyway...
