The Brits are absolutely stupid.

im on a patrol and selected the mission of sinking 50k tons of shipping on brit coast. so i patrol, find a ship and sink it.. so then i decide to go up north towards the ports blythe and tyne. i patrol there and thers just like 15 destroyers surrounding the harbor. so i decide to get out of there when i see the black line of a merchant. i zoom in and theres an INSANE umber of black lines. turns out this is a TWENTY ship CONVOY WITH NO ESCORTS AT ALL! $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

i cant catch them underwater so i go on surface and get in range of one and fire two torps. it gets her health down pretty low, but doesnt appear to be sinking. so i fire 2 more at another ship and sink it. then i look back and that ship STILL isnt sinking. so i fire another torp (which misses) my only stern torp. so i leave that one and fire another torp at a ship, and it JUST barely hits the bow. if the ship wad reversed it wouldve miss. so i fire another but THAT one misses. so i leave that one alone and search for better targets. by now the convoy is in disarray and 1 is going north and im going east, so its a very nice shot. i line is up and fire. it hits

i ready up another torp and unfortunetely, it misses the damaged ship, but ends up hitting another ship of the same type. by then im out of torps. so i wait a few minutes for the conoy to get away from me a little and surface and use my deck gun. the first 15 shots miss cause im at long range, but then i get close enough so that i dont miss. i sink a fully healthy ship, then go after the two ones i hit with 1 torpedo each. i sink them both, but am starting to use up ap shells as my he were gone.

then i spend about 5 minutes hitting another healthy ship to death. by then i had but 20 shells left, so VERY VERY VEEEEEEEEERy reluctantly, i leave the convoy and sail back to port for resupply. i check the mission meter and its JUST barely shy of 50k.

so basically, the brits let a 20-ship convoy armed with nothing but aa guns ride ALONE without ANY escort through the seas. thats why the brits are just retarded
