I decided that the Fatherland could best be served by cutting off the supply of cocoa beans and pipe tobacco from the New World and given that I was on a first patrol with a new crew (again) carried on for the convoy.
Big mistake. I died  Stupid convoy changed course towards me at about 1000m and I went from being ahead and on the port side to just being ahead. Made the mistake of firing a snap salvo(which all missed) alerted the escorts and then crash dived without checking the depth  Suffered damage and what sounded like the compressor hissing at max volume. Not very stealthy and crew wouldn't repair anything. Escorts must have thought it was xmas. Another new patrol tonight I guess |
Doom de doom --Sorry to hear that, mate
