When you pull into port, dont lull yourself into a false sense of security, your mines and subnets are just a petty challenge for my crew and I.

An "end_around" is a type of American football play in which a player on one end of line circles behind the line and goes to the other side with the foot ball.

In the game it is simply keeping a target in sight till you get in front of it for a firing position. You have portability done it a thousand times.

Not just in the game. It was the term they used at the time, running around in front of a slow-moving convoy so they could lie in wait for it.

sometimes the games AI cheats against you and real tactics fail but in most cases they serve you well and you will learn the things that do or dont work.
