Not bad .

I think I'll take a look around Cape Town. I guess most of those ships were in convoy, not traveling alone?

Quite a few small convoys with only 1 or 2 escorts.
The rest were in heavily escorted large convoys.

I understand Lloyds of London has put a price on your head.

They do now, Steve!!!
I, as Kurt, just set sail on my second patrol.
BDU sent me to patrol shallow (and probably mined) waters just off the east coast of Britain.
But en-route I met a convoy in thick fog. I infiltrated behind the lead escort and waited for the first ships to appear.
Here's an event-camera shot from after the attack:


HMT Aquitania

This looks set to be one hell of a career - if it lasts (the ensuing DC attack was not fun).
