Default Just had my first HOLY CRAP moment.

So I was cruising southeast along the British coast looking for something to kill with the two torpedoes I had left before going to refit, and I get a radio report of a convoy. So I set a course to intercept and start going. Once I get to my intercept position, the fog is pretty bad and it's almost pitch black night, so I start a zig-zag search pattern because I'm sure I got to the spot ahead of the convoy. I'm sailing along, waiting for a visual contact, and then it happens.

I find myself almost directly in the middle of a 17-ship convoy. One of the ships almost sailed right through me. Apparently, though, they never saw me, as they are still on the same course. I'm trying to pick out the juciest targets for my two torpedoes, but it's difficult to see in the dark even at close range.

Just had to pause the game and share that.
