Got you all beat, though no screen to prove it XD
I stumbled upon a convoy with no less than 30 merchants and only 2 pesky destroyers escorting them!!
Unfortunatly, due to the low number of torpedoes and the fact that i needed 2 to sink a ship, i only got about 5 kills

HANG ON, just let me get back to germany to restock on ammo, i'll be right back to finish the rest of you off, please wait

God i wish you could refit in neutral ports.

Stumbled into a 36 merchant + 3 DD convoy in the 100k patrol area, it was rather impressive sight! Managed to sink 4 merchant and 2 destroyers.

I actually had a 40 merchant convoy and ZERO destroyers escorting it. And I had just refit, too.

Let's just say I achieved a mission objective that night.

The giant convoys in SH5 are awesome. On a moonlit night, it's proper Das-Boot territory.

Anyone else think they've got night-time absolutely bang-on in this?

Yup, crystal clear moonlit night gives the vibes! My attack was during night but I suck @ screenshots, they seem always to be too dark to recognize anything :/
