On my way out the only reason I got lucky with the DD is, because the IO was stupid.
He would circle around me and when dropping charges they would go too deep.
It was super shallow as well, I barely got out alive with the batteries always going 3 - 5 meters from the floor. I shoot 3 torps at a DD but only one hit due to a bad angle (damn torpedo nets). It is sometime early 1942 GWX 2.
Would not do it again.
Also I modded my crew and virtually all people have some skills. GWX 2 is tough!
I just slipped into loch ewe and it was dead easy, now i have to decide between a southampton class, a floating dock and a modern tanker. Tough choices.
