Ok so I had time to play out this convoy attack, knew I was going to attempt a second run if I got away. Sure enough 3 escorts tried to slab my boat, mid 40's you can get away from them. Even after they lost me while I was creeping away I watched them pound the crap out of where they thought I was.
And so I was ready with tube 4 depth at 2.5 just in case. Never happened because at the last minute the escort to my port side took a turn and swept giving me more of a hole to work with. I aimed for the two cargo steamers and the T-3. Now usually if your positioned right and set your speeds this works out, but with two t2's a C2 'intercepted one of the fish intended for a steamer and took out it's screws. Wound up scoring the t3 and a heavy steamer, pinned the c-2. One fish was a dud. Finished off the c2 with a stern shot later.
Second run scored a celt, rose ore & another heavy steamer.
