New Tactics

Ahoy, ive just been trying some new tactics in the Straights of Gibralta and thought I would share them.
Firstly I spotted an ASW trawler sweeping the straights whilst i was on the roof (surface) so i set to full ahead hoping to make enough noise and visual so it would come after me which it did. I then ordered my deck gun crew to engage at long range and successfully hit the trawler twice leaving the boat with no propulsion.
As expected the bigger boys came steaming out to find me, a couple of V&W ships and an A&B class, so I sneaked under the trawler and waited whilst the Royal Navy swept the area, once the enemy started to head westerly I then progressed eastwards through the straights wating until I was about 4000m from the sweeping ships and the wounded trawler, I then engaged her with my loaded stern eel taking her out in a mighty explosion and sending her down to Davy Jones's locker.
I then continued to sneak through the straights picking off various medium merchants on the other side of Gibralta.
