Default just have to sneak in

I've just engaged the large convoy I've been chasing on east coast of U.S.
Did an end round and got pretty close to my desired targets (two large tankers) before I was spotted. I would have only needed a one more minute to fire my eels and go underwater. Well it didnt matter cuz I got my four eels off, two on both targets. 3 of 4 hits and one tanker goes down right away. And twenty minutes later the other tanker which got hit once goes down as well.

Now just trying to evade the escorts (4 or 5 of them in the conwoy). They've been pretty close to my position, but no DC's yet.. Silent running at 1 knots, depth 80 meters and only 20 meters under keel

It's 4 am local time and I've been running silent now about 40 minutes. The weather is in my favor thank god.
oh yeah and the year is 1942 and running IXD2

So far so good

Guess the point is that you can get close with carefully plotting your approuch and keeping your eye on the escorts.

btw using NYGM 2.0 and loving it so far

okay this post got out of hand
