[quote=Nichren]Long time lurker first time poster...
Welcome aboard Nichren,
HEY, sometimes we're going to be seen, maybe by a jumpy lookout that thought he saw something. There's soo many eyes on that ship compared to your lookouts and officer. S__T is going to happen. If I could sneak in everytime, what fun would that be. I personally haven't been detected every time by an Escort. But there have been times when I thought all was well, only to have to crash dive and evade to escape. To me it's much more rewarding to escape death sometimes than to rack up 100,000 tons every patrol. To be able to go home, get my crew some awards, see the family, Fatherland, and go on another patrol is reward enough.............IMO
