Default Forgive me for I have sinned...

Its been some time since my last confession. While playing 100% realism on very hard, I died and re-loaded my campaign.

I couldnt bring myself to accept the death because it just didnt seem right. I was submerged on silent running moving away from a distant warship contact that appeared to be tracking me from way beyond the horizon.

After sometime at high time compression and silent running below the thermocline my sonar officer lost passive sound contact. So I surfaced at high time compression to find myself under attack by two small escorts...perhaps subchasers, i couldnttell because it was at night.

I dont know if it was the distant surface contact that magically caught up tp me or if I just happened to surface into one of those sitting/sleeping mini-taskforces. My sonar officer never picked them up it seems, or they found me even at silent running under the thermocline even after I was silent running and had change course.

Either way it just didnt seem right, either they snuck in without me hearing them or I had the amazing bad luck of surfacing into a sitting taskforce...which doesnt seem right either. I cant imagine a single or group of warships would just sit out in the middle of the ocean...well they were actually they were 50nm of the coast.....but still!!! come on, that just sucks!

Anyway, please forgive me sub-warfare gods!
