Well, it is true that bad things are likely to happen when you take a convoy from the rear.

OTOH, at least you can both watch the hockey game.

That reminds me a lewd country song parody I heard some time ago. I can't remember all the lyrics but one line stood out:

"Let's do it doggy style so we can both watch TV."

Collega Comandante Jimbuna,

may I ask where did you manage to find the Strasbourg that can be seen in your screenshot? In GWX Gold the biggest thing the French have is the Bourrasque.

Thanks!

Convoy attack, from the rear?

Realistic chance of success = about zero.
(The price of playing cowboy can be high, but sorry you lost your boat, crew, and "life".)

In mitigation, it used to work in Aces of the Deep, but GWX is a different kettle of fish. After a couple of unsuccessful attempts this way, due only to desperation resultant from very low visibility, I have learned to avoid this method.
