Remember, in RL an escort could keep a U-boat submerged for hours. Sometimes it was easier to wait until they had to surface through lack of air than to try and destroy them with a depth charge.

IIRC the DDs in sh3 had more DCs than i RL (what a begining:rotfl

around 100 (in game) while in RL that number was smaller.Bottom line is that (as i said IIRC) they have more deptcharges ingame compared to reallife.Though this should compansate for the lack of reason in the allied escorts.

its pretty intense being pinned down by a dd for a while

i was attacking a large convoy last night i sunk a black swan then noticed a flower class off about 6km with the convoy at 4km so i surfaced at flank speed and kept an eye on the flower but he ignored me and let me run at the ships

the only problem was i only had 2 torps left

i got close and missed both

meanwhile the flower still didnt take any notice untill the ships put the search lights on me and that escort pinned me down for about an hour and a half he ran out of deptcharges and i slipped away, this game is class.

max............

If there are friends in the area they will call them in. Had one DD get a lucky return on me in the Irish sea whilst exiting a convoy, he called all his mates over from the convoy and then another DD and an Armed Trawler (

Hate them hate them hate them

) showed up to join in the fun.

Made it out alive though, after a six hour ash can fest.
