Greed Kills

Here's what happened....Got a msg about a convoy and immediately headed to intercept. I spot the lead ship of the convoy far off on scope. I go to silent running and creep in. I see the DD protecting the convoy 1st. He doesn't notice me so I continue my creep in as the ships start to pop up. I'm in great position. I'm popping the cope up every now and then to get my line of attack right.

So I make it to the convoy undetected and fire two at a large cargo...before they impact I veer to the right and send two more at the freighter in front of the cargo ship. I immediately swing a 180 and head the other way...tic, tic, tic, tic, tic etc...boom...boom..(yeah!! She's goin down)....a couple minutes later...boom....boom (yeah she's going down!!)

2 kills...I was all set up for a stern shot but waited to see the effects of the 1st shots. No need...I should have continued away from the convoy. But no...I' get greedy.

I swing to run parallel (sp?) to the now moving convoy after the 2 ships I hit go down I go to normal running ahead 1/3 so I can re laod. As I'm doing this the lead DD protecting the convoy has no clue where I am. I reload one...and almost get a second fish in the tube...All of a sudden...I'm being pinged. I swing the scope a full 360 to see if I missed anyone....yup. A DD just about on top of me. I didn't spot him @ all. Not once did I pick up the 2nd warship. needless to say I was depth charged. The 2nd DD came in and they sent me to the locker.

I could have gotten away with 2 kills...and my boat. Got greedy and lost everything.

Starting new career toady...Sad to see my people/boat go.
