Snuck in around the point to the south. I had to evade a couple of patrolling DD's but didn't have to many problems in silent running. Lined up a salvo on an Illustrious carrier and sunk her.
the lid really blew of the sh1tcan then. All the DD's in port (9 at last count) started pinging like mad and a couple locked onto me. Used a mad but effective evasion technique of running flat out towards the wharves then using emergency backwith a sharp starbord turn to end up parallel to the pier. droped back to forward slow and crept along to the end.
Bugger! found a torp net! No problem gently scrape past and sneak back around the end of the wharf for the next high speed run across the harbour. Meanwhile two DD's start ramming the whark behind me trying to get through until they sunk themselves!
Made the next flank speed run across to the next wharf. with four of the DD's homing in on the noise I was making. I slowed down, and snuck into a berth where there was a tramp steamer sitting. I sort of slid between her and the wharf and shut down. One of the DD's tried to back into the space with the tramp to drop some eggs on me head!
I shot out of there like a rat up a drain at flank and then parallelled the wharf again in a repeat of the first one. This time the DD that backed up killed itself and the tramp with it's eggs and two more DD's ran themselves into the pier!
As I crept away in the confusion the remaining patrols kept looking for me back where the tramp was. by the time they realised I wasn't around anymore I was halfway around the point at silent running. All up i thought it was a good result. Shame I couldn't get any renown for sinking the DD's.
