So during my bi-hourly hydrophone check I detected a merchant contact to my south.
I surfaced and moved in for intercept. After a while I was within visual contact and saw there was a convoy of 5 steamers, unescorted! Hurrah! I moved ahead and got into position. Locked in details on the lead ships and waited. As they passed I launched my torpedoes. The far one missed since I misidentified the ship and it passed below it, but I nailed the close merchant. At this point though I have one rear torpedo left and no gun rounds. So, I just sit there and watch the convoy pass waiting for the stricken merchant to sink. Just than one of my lookouts called "Escort sighted!" "That's odd," I think because there weren't any escorts near when I started to attack. I glance in the direction of the contact and FIVE destroyers are doing 34kts RIGHT at me! I scream "ALAAARRRRRMMM!!!" and nothing happens. Ah ha! So I scramble to the hatch and go down it, THEN scream "ALAAAARRRRMMM!!!" and we crash dive... |

Bit of testing, did some "work" on a periscope mod and got settled in at BtS. New place to host and a new place to spam.
While underway for my next patrol, ran into task force. QE battleship, in all her glory. Came creaping in, less then a KM off her course, 45 AOB solution, perfect. Escorts not a chance to detect me and she had no chance to evade. Let loose a salvo of 3 torpedoes, all hit: 1 clipped the bow, 1 struck at the second battery and the third struck just behind the superstructure near the third battery. After 30 min, she was barely listing and steaming at 11kts. Granted, she started out at 15 and was maneuvering, but still. *sigh* back to the drawing board. Think I'll leave the escorts for now and focus on the large warships first.

"Captain, enemy sub joining our formation, twelve o' clock!" "Damnit! Radio, signal the u-boat and tell them to get the heck out of there! The spacing between warships in coloumn formation is a 100 metres, and Allied Destroyer formations are only comprised of Allied Destroyers! I'll have his head for messing with our routines this way!"

I have to admit, some of these screen shots are making it difficult for me not to buy the game.
