On my first patrol I pulverized a Portugese trawler with my deck gun. Oops!

I thought it odd that he didn't take any evasive action as I drew closer.

Now I'm very careful about checking the flags during the day, particularly if the targets don't zig. Also, as has been pointed out, blackout = torpedo los!

Yesterday I came across three or four neutral ships in a row. Very frustrating as this was happening at the tail end of a dissapointing patrol. I reallly, reallly wanted to sink something. The fattest target was a Japanese tanker!

Much as I would've liked to sink these ships, I got more enjoyment out of the fact that they were there at all. Makes the game much more immersive. Thanks GWX 2! (Now, if we could just solve those durn CTD's that occur every day.)
