Watch Officer & I

[LTD1]

Who ever claimed truth is first victim in war lied,surely I outraced it to bottom of the ocean.

My first patrol in SH 5 went something like this;
Save for half a dozen CTDs when using UZO the trip from Kiel to eastern coast of England went well enough. I began patrolling the target sector. Increased time compression. Kept sailing about for some two days, no contacts. Starting to think traffic isn't quite as high as I would have imagined. Weather and fuel reports aside, first time I hear from my crew is when they deem it polite to tell me my sub is falling apart. I quickly set time compression to 1x and climb to tower.. just in time to see not one, but TWO warships more or less ramming me. Why didn't my watch officer report of these less welcoming hosts?! Is this a bug, feature or am I doing something wrong? I wasn't in travel mode. Seriously, WTF!
