Enough already!!!

[Stingray67]

So there I am in my Type IID W of the Hebrides when the lookouts spot a ship.
Turns out to be two; a Town class Destroyer and an unidentified escort.

Since the sea was like glass and I was making too much noise they detected me and steered towards me. No matter I thought and dove to just above the sea bed (80 odd metres in this case).
They pick me upp easily enough and through two accurate depth charge salvoes destroys my AA gun, radio, hydrophones and both persicopes. The torpedo tubes are all damaged but repairable and the batteries are destroyed.

So I am dodging what turns out to be two elite escorts in reasonably shallow waters. I am at the bottom end of my battery power and can only coax my electrical engines to give me 3 knots. Being deaf as well as blind (no external camera) it is not so easy to handle the geometry of this particular fight. After a while they run out of depth charges but still keep at it.

Three hours into this cat-and-mouse the depth charges start rainig down again damaging my diesels. I think they just got reinforced! I keep evading and soon they are out of things to throw at me again.

This all started at 19:30 and it is now 05:59 game-time. I am seriously tired of the situation. The battery level is decreasing, although slowly. I have three-quarters of my compressed air and the on-board air is ok...so far.
I think there is only one escort left, but he is both persistant and uncanny in his ability to find me time and time again. I have been toying with the idea to make a run for it on the surface, but I don't think my chances are very good in my Type II. Besides I would need to do that soon if I want cover of darkness.

I'll keep evading, I think. I have run out of tricks to loose him with and I am pessimistic about the outcome but I will be damned if I am going to roll over just like that.
