this is a glitch and goes against everything convoy tactics stands for.

actually, they were. they were waiting for me.....like ever seen saving private ryan? remember when the guy got shot by a sniper. all the other guys were lying in wait until they caught where the sniper was. well its like that, cept they baited the sniper, and the sniper didnt bait them. see they were using the damaged ship as BAIT! then when id come up theyd al show theyre sharp teeth (deck guns) and waste awaythe last 5% of my hull integrity. THE FUNNY THING IS! i did surface AND i sunk the damaged ship and slipped under before they could get a shot to hit me heheheheheheh.

It autosaved like 20 seconds after i surfaced and by that itme i had already fireda few shots at it so it autosaved RIGHT at they started firing their guns.

i had to keep reloading and finding new way to avoid them and eventually slip under. i finally found a good one. full back hard to port and if i went full back id start to sink for osme reason. so i did that. fired off the last shots to kill his health then ran as fast as i could into the hatch and ordered periscope depth at flank speed. still got hit though :P. but it did 3% hull damage.

so right now im like 2% hull integrity back to lorient. those two are a DANGEROUS mix. cause getting OUT of lorient is a navigational nightmare. i ALWAYs scrape the dam pen walls or SOMETHING when i leave. Thank god you dont have to dock your boat yourself. Ughhh.

You don't go after the convoy, the convoy goes after you!

good thing that your chief stocked up on plenty of BdU issue super glue, otherwise your boat would have fallen apart
