Didn't that happen to the ill-fated convoy PQ-17? Or something like that
I encountered one unarmed convoy off the southernwest tip of Ireland, but this was early vanilla SH3 if I remember correctly. A turkey-shoot indeed :rotfl:
Quite different from my recent encounter near Gibraltar, U-505 IXC - nov. 1941. Perfect ocean! Perfect weather! Unfortunately, also in bright daylight! Fired four eels and they all missed LOL! Crashdive to 165 meters, depthcharged, but sneaked away.
It's hard to let a prey like that go, but I have to. Life to fight another day. That's more of a VII job. Only one escort chased me, but he had four buddies among the six rows of ships. I should cruise until the 7th of december and cross a certain pond
The convoy was being tracked though. I noticed a circle icon for the convoy and several ships were on fire. The DD's destroyed my fellow U-boat before I arrived at the scene.
