I'd do my 24, sitting there as quiet as a mouse, and then move on to CA79

Well, it's not going exactly to plan...

Was sat there happily, Rain, thunder, 15m/s winds, Medium fog... happy as a fox that's just found a hen house...

So, I take the time to alt tab, read some of these wonderful forums...

...when I return, I've taken mild damage, and I think there's a DD looking for me, could be wrong, but I get that impression for two reasons.

Firstly, the 5" hole in my side.



Secondly, the DD racing towards me.



Managed to get to 12meters, amazingly, no fecking clue what to do now! May ram him as a last defiant act

EDIT: I'm in 25meters of water.

I'm gonna have words with BdU IF I make it out alive... anyone taking bets against?

You will make it. Just stay at PD, keep as low profile as possible, and you should be OK.

I think I love Bold Decoys... DD just wasted 2 runs on the bubbly mass (which i dropped as soon as I was at PD) I'm now slipping away VERY slowly, 45% hull integrity but at least I can run silent now the flooding is under control

Well I escaped.

Sailed 20km @ 25meters, audio Merchants...

Periscope Depth, Victory Class (never seen one before)

I sink it, along comes the Clemson......

Luck ran out, took some DC hits, integrity fell to 2%, I dove to 50meters and I imploded.

Still, good fun all round

Ouch, do you mean that you died on you 19th patrol? Do you play Dead-if-dead?

Cheers,
