well, that was brief patrol.....
ran into a convoy in thick fog, nearly got rammed by a black swan,
hardly any relevant notes, then just when I have evaded the damn escort, the crew mutinies...they wouldn't respond to anything anymore, all the other buttons worked, but no response from the crew, couldn't manage the boat, couldn't navigate, had to exit the game...
I generaly don't stick too close to the sealanes, at least, not when heading south, near britain, sure, but when heading to gibraltar or further the convoy lanes on the map are a tad out of the way, and i run into a lot of southbound convoys when sticking to a line from BF7 via CG1 4 and 7, then I choose to close in on the straits or go further south past the canaries
I'll post screenies of my near fatal encounter later, right now I'm just going to reboot the computer and do a type II patrol, or maybe start a career in the med...
later...
