If you look at Oblivion, you're a goner.

Type IX for ever!

Thats was my plan except DD's kept showing up. Got 4 Swans and a Flower Corvette. STILL trying to get away from the hornets nest I stirred up and trying not to die from multiple DC attacks.

If I survive, there better be something good in the convoy....

Well the convoy I ran into had only a Black Swan and a Corvette. So sent the BS to the bottom and sunk the corvette with gun fire. I had 2 fish a stern and 1 forward. I had of100 deck gun ammo. This convoy is in early 40-41, and had 5-6 C3's and a 3-4 large merchants. So I aim under the wheelhouse of the C3's and sunk like 4 and with a help of a fish sunk 3 large merchants. Then was heading out two planes tried to bomb me but I got under and sunk one medium tanker with the final two fish. This was the first patrol I got 100K GWX or vanilla. So I was very happy.
I might add a little story with Bernard that damaged my U-boat on the same patrol. I was in a convoy and had sunk a Southampton class and a couple of merchants and cargos. Bernard thought he would like to take her topside. Needless the British welcomed me with open arms and guns.:hmm: I barely got her under and we fired Bernard out of the torpedo tubes as a diversion.

Heh, let me get a little more practice on convoys first! I have a feeling I may not survive the retribution from my exploits. Last report was 200+ meters and sinking fast with heavy flooding, front torp compartment floodin, front crew qtrs flooding, hydrophone and radio damaged. Emergency ballast blowing is slowing my descent, but not stopping it.
