...and sometimes gods doesn’t smile at you!
NYGM: spotted nice ship in the dark, not far to Scapa (not deep at all)
Reached my interception point, periscope depth, ahead slow 1 knot.
Was about to fire when my hydro man called for 2 warships closing fast...Same merchant trajectory!
By the time i had to fire, the 2 destroyers were surrounding him (and me by the way)
So i let them go, thinking for further interception...when Open space was cleared, i surfaced and full throttle to catch back the guy.
Just when i reached him...rain started falling with heavy fog coming! Few time later, sea was too bad to manage a successful attack, and couldn’t see a damn thing due to fog at night.
Gods were smiling at this damn merchant, ignorant the whole thing!
