Destroyer evasion

[teg916]

I am probably not the first to notice this, but one good way to help you out when you have a destroyer depth charging you is your observation periscope. During the day you can see the hull of the ship for a few seconds before it is on top of you and gives you a better chance of dodging in the right direction. At night you can see the search lights shining on the water. I usually retract it as soon as I see depth charges in the water so it does not get damaged. If it does get damaged, you still have your attack periscope.
