The first campaing with NYGM 2.0 I attacked a convoy escorted by 1 DD and 3 smaller escorts. After torpedoing 4 ships (2 sunk, 1 dead in the water, 1 damaged), they pinged me and I wasn't able to escape (the sea was only 60 meters depth). For several hoirs they dropped the hell on me, doing moderate damage to my U-boat, nothing too serious, but they managed to destroy forward batteries, leaving my ship with only 25% power left...

Escorts finally left with no more DC, but keep pinging me, forcing me to stay submerged...
24 hours later, trying every kind of maneuver possible, I was forced to surface in the middle of their search pattern with almost no power left...

I manned the deck gun, but after 2 direct hits I preferred to save my men's life and surrendered the boat!
