GWX has many paths, just as God in saying the Lord's ways are inscrutable

I just want to say, that today on my 14th Patrol (and still going,) I was using the Time Compression a little excessive and sure enough before I knew it, flak guns totally destroyed and 90% hull damage.. What happened.. The Destroyer rammed me while I was at P. Depth.. No biggie, till I saw he was sinking and destroyed.. I was happy, but I know that should not happen, lol

90% hull damage, look on the bright side you still have 10% left, but you may expect to have the holiday for a while before you can go out on a mission,and you are in life which is important, take your crew and head off to Berlin, and rock

Oh yeah, then there will be no long vacation, perhaps the hinterland or the local pub

I have seen this happen several times also. Mostly during the convoy attack academy mission. But I guess it can also happen during a campaign patrol. For some reason the destroyer started picking on the armed trawler (or was it the other way around, can't remember, too long ago) when they were trying to depthcharge me. I've never seen what might have caused the aggravation between them, as I was deep below surface. I'm guessing the one that is shooting received collateral damage from one of the depthcharges of the other unit. It's so weird, I almost felt being neglected.

I have had an instance when a trawler got too excited and circled me like a bird. Destroyer was already firing long before the trawler got all jumpy.

Let's just say the trawler gave me enough time to escape while the destroyer stopped firing due to collateral damage.

That is where it happened for me, I was messing about on the convoy attack naval academy mission, being depth charged while fairly shallow, then when I look up top again that is when I noticed it! (have never seen it during campain though).
I did'nt feel neglected as they still would not leave me alone!
I quit the mission before I saw the outcome of their little tiff!
