Wow, C3s? They fall apart at a touch for me.

Last night, on my way through BF42 outbound, I hear a 2-ship convoy. Turns out to be a T3 in front of a C2. I've only seen T3s in convoys, and not many at that. I may never have hit one before.

I send an eel to each and wait for the fireworks from the big ship. Tiny fire starts forward, but no other change. I send him another. The C2 is slowing now, so I ignore it. Second hit on the tanker is aft. No fireworks. By this time, I have to go under because they're zigging and the tanker is getting close.

In external view, it looks like I'm under a steel iceberg. It was alarming.

I think it took me 4 or 5 eels to sink the tanker and only one other to get rid of the C2, aiming for the stack.

T3 is the new C2? Maybe he was carrying olive oil or something.
