Stock of course...back then long time ago internet was dial-up and expensive as platinum... downloading GWX would last a month and my parents would hang me for my tenders for telephone bill... now with GWX I'm cautious as a sardine... SH4 was also stock...

Reloading externals when shadowing convoy 16.000 km away was pretty stupid.
Black Swan DE spots me and i cannot surface and max speed was 4kts
All hands lost.

Heh, once i went to reload externals. Then got caught by a trawler and torp boat. I was lucky enough to kill them with a mix of deck gun and flak. Not before suffering some hull damage though D:

On patrol in Grid BF 15 Oct of 1940... and getting ready to take on the HMS Hood, shadowed by 5 Tribal Class destroyers or more. I've only counted 5 but the hydrophone is showing more contacts.

If you win, go after the Rodney & Nelson! 8^ )

I've gotten into a gunfight with an armed trawler (once you pick off the poor soul manning the AAA gun in the bow, it's a pretty easy fight), but that's about the limit of my gumption. I admire your moxie!

Outcome: not much really.
I managed to score a few hits below the waterline but it probably only did minor damage. We got hit by something (unsure what) and we ended up sinking but we pulled up at the last sec ( moment) and we had suffered huge damage but the sinking had saved us. Now to try again!
