I am new to SH3 as well and ive been sunk twice and ive completed the war and what have you.

Im now starting it afresh with full realism and i found it no hard task to sneak into scapa flow and sink HMS Renown i figured if i stayed at 3 knots then my battery would last for hours and since the DD's are dancing around like tits in a transe theres no way on earth they can pick me up.

Hence i got away.

My big downfall is that im used to commanding nuclear submarines my submarine is the K154 Vepr she is a 300 foot long 12,000 tonne attack submarine that realy does put even the type 21 to shame 35 knots submerged 575 meters crush depth and no need for surfacing and 14 torpedo tubes with over 30 reloads.

Plus the weapons are wire guided well some are and i have missiles so the whole issue here is just learning to point the sub in the general direction and fire from PD cause in the akula i can do the firing from 570 meters no issue.

But yeah you cobbed an unlucky streek but what ever you do dont try to flank speed it out of there cause the DD's will win 3 knots let them do the blind running and bobs your uncle.

Thats what ive found anyways.
