Default a thing about falkes

the actually have not chased my sub when running on electrics. There was a shot I did on the surface not realizing I had released on of these little hunters.

Sure enough my boat went boom. But not before my looking at the TDC screen to set up the next shot and seeing the little icon following my boat.

It was quite funny when the scene from red October, when the second in command onf the VK Carnivolev says to his captain "you arragont ass, you killed us." shot through my mind just before my boat jumped into the air in a geyser of blast.

It actually did not destroy my boat, but the patrol was over, and it did not make it back to base, it was just short of the shore running on batteries, at a very shallow depth, when we ran out of juice.

In reality, I probably would have gotten a tow.
