before i begin, i want to tell you that this came after 3 botched installs (all CTDs during gameplay, messed up subsequent loads) so i reinstalled 4....i am playing GWX 2.1, OLCE 2, and OLC GUI with manual targeting.
Grid Square CG85...at the inlet/outlet of the Med...
after sinking one ship with the DG...1000 tonner
convoy report nearby...turned to intercept...3 hours later, Merchant Spotted!
its night, and pitch black outside...only the horizion is a lighter shade of dark blue. i jump on the bridge, and i see a convoy conisisting of about 2 copies of ships over 5,000 tons minus tankers, and a Southhampton Class cruiser. i am headed southeast, they are headed southwest...range....about 3,000 meters, at 6 knots.
i am at ahead slow, making 6 knots...to my left, i catch a silohuette of a black swan about 2,000 meters away.
i jump on the UZO...and order Ahead Flank....an empire class freighter and the southhampton overlap, i set up and fire 2 eels, then shift to the second Empire...and fire the last 2 and crash dive....
at 35 meters...the first 2 miss, times up, and has been for 1 minute.
at 50...Torpedo impact!...Torpedo impact!
one empire down....
and a black swan and a v&w closing in i saw turning when i crash dove.
what caught me was when i was playing the gramophone, i had Konvoi playing from the Das Boot Soundtrack...and i realised that the attack mimicked the attack from the directors cut!
