Excellent episode, things are warming up nicely after a slow start. Narrative pacing would call for a couple of boring ones now...
Number of depth charges is discussed here https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/sho...d.php?t=254413. Two unknowns - number carried in real life was very variable and not sure how it is captured in the game. Escorts do run out eventually but they keep up attack runs until they lose contact, which while realistic is very annoying late war.

I find going to flank speed draws escorts from across the whole convoy. They don't seem to talk to each other and if deep 4 knots is enough for dodging. More difficult in only 100 metres of water!
