Careless AI II
Last time a posted about a destroyer ramming and helping me to sink a light cruiser. This time (using 1.3) I was caught at periscope depth by an escorting DD that I somehow missed during my sweep. I thought I was dead. The DD went right past my stern as I hit "crash dive" and swung the scope around. I'm not sure what exactly happened because it happened so fast, but this is what I think. The DD slowed as he dropped his depth charges, and then backed his engines. As I swung my scope around I saw fire on his fantail and then a few moments later the DD disintegrated in a huge explosion. He had to be a victim of his own ashcans! We didn't collide and there were no other Alleid forces around (it's Janaury 1942).
I was left unscathed!
