Okay so here is whats been happening. I havent been getting passed 1940. In this last patrol, which was my latest. I died in Feb1940 thanks to accurate and deadly depth charge attacks. But before i go into that. I had 4 patrols. All 4 of em i encountered strong enemy aircraft attacks, along with being spotted and detected by boats and pretty good distances. A aircraft appeared even after torpedoed an auxilary cruiser and dropped a bomb near my bow. Ive been only sinking single merchants, and 2 armed trawlers.
Now i encountered a LARGE Convoy northeast of Ireland. This is Feb 1940. As i grew closer to it.. It had 7 escorts.. 7!!! 7!!!! Thats nutz! Britian DOES NOT HAVE THE resources to COmmit 7 BOATS to 1 convoy!!! Thats ridiculous!! Not only that. These bastards saw me at 4000+ meters!!! I managed to get at least 2000 meters behind the convoy ducking and dogding depth charge attacks. But as i drew closer. I was pinged incessitly by 2 Hunt I. Not only that, they were GOOD at it. I never lost em, i dropped to 80 meters but never went on silent run because DDs usually lose their contacts after a few depth charge attacks. But they were great at it. And they finally got me and U-53 went to the bottom with a loss of all hands. Only sinking 32,000+ tonnage.

Now tell me, is any1 else experiencing this difficulty in such an early stage, because i never have.
