Unescorted convoys

Thanks,

I have encountered one of those previously, Rodney, hiding in the middle of the convoy. Didn't manage to sink her though... 1 DD and a Corwette were also there.

So I presume the escorts protecting a convoy are always there, regardless of where I encounter them? I.e. no extra escorts close to shore?

ASW assets (of all sorts) are EVERYWHERE. Especially close to shore.

Beware.

Just found an unescorted large convoy south of the UK...and I mean unescorted completely. I actually employed a long range shoot and scoot from about 6000m, but then I noticed nothing searched for me at all. I surfaced and sailed right at them and nothing responded. I went right up to them and sank 10 vessels before I was depleted of all armements. Best luck I ever got in this game!
