I just got back from a very dissatisfying 86,000t patrol.


We left Lorient and preceeded to our patrol sector West of Rockall. En route we encountered two lone merchants; an empire-type and a coastal freighter. Both were sunk. We then arrived at our patrol sector and scoured it for three days. No signs of life.


On the way home we recieved a contact report in the wee hours; a inbound convoy heading east, its probable destination Liverpool via the Irish Sea. A decent target at last. We set a course for intercept and came upon it about midday. Although it was dry, visibility was only about 7km due to heavy cloud and a high swell. Unable to get a visual on the whole convoy, the hydrophone suggested there were about twenty ships and only three escorts. One out front and the other two off the rear corners. Party time.


We dived to periscope depth and slipped under the front escort. Periscope went up to mark our targets. A Southampton was steaming quietly in the centre. I'd sunk five of these since the start of my career and remembered reading somewhere that there were six Southamptons built. I couldn't resist bagging the full set. Three front torps hit the cruiser (just to make sure) and the rear winged a coastal freighter. I began a steep dive to 150m at flank as the swo side escorts turned in to pursue me. Once at depth, I went to silent speed and came 90' to port in an effort to slink away. The escorts came up quickly and took turns depth charging the spot where we'd gone from flank to silent. By this time our boat was 500m away. Both the cruiser and the freighter went down during this time. Eventually the escorts gave up bombing the same spot over and over and went back to their convoy positions. Huh? No ASDIC? I was well withing range for them to ping me. Not one to complain, I made distance, surfaced, reloaded and came about for another bite.


I slipped in again and this time bagged a large merchant and another coastal freighter. This time only the leading escort came after me and again, multiple depth charges on my last known position and no ping. I'd encountered "elite" crews before; maybe these were "incompetent" crews?



Surfaced again, the convoy was coming over the continental shelf but it was getting dark and by now I was feeling cocky. I was running low on torps (and out of rear torps) so I took position to take a front shot on an ore carrier as the convoy came upon me for the third time. Down it went. This time none of the escorts even came after me.


Slightly bewildered, I headed toward home with three front torps remaining and a decent tonnage of about 41,000.


No contacts were sighted until the next morning. A lone troop carrier steaming south west off the coast of Galway. I'd never encountered a troop ship before and, with three torps left, determined to sink it. It was quite foggy and difficult to make out but it looked like a four stacker. Four stacks? None of these troop ships in the book have... IT'S THE AQUITANIA!!


I knew she was fast so I matched her course and moved ahead flank whilst determining her speed. 14 knots. And I'm making 16 on these seas. Brilliant. I powered ahead, I mean really far ahead; I didn't want to stuff this one up. Once she was out of sight I came to port and laid the boat to intercept her course at 90'. I ducked down to periscope depth and waited. And waited. And waited. She was long overdue at my intercept point, let alone the fact that she wasn't in visual range of my scope. I zoomed out on the nav map and realised; her noise signature wasn't moving. Cautiously moving toward her, there were no signs of movement. Coming closer, I realised: she was sinking. The water was almost up to her deck. What the hell? Calm seas, no rain, not another ship in sight. A mine hit maybe? Anyway, I felt cheated. I launched my last three torps at her to pick off the tonnage, feeling dirty as hell. I got the "she's going down" message the second the first torp hit.


Heading back to Lorient it occurred to me that this was my highest ever patrol tonnage. But rather than being excited, I felt hollow.



Escorts that didn't seem to care about protecting their convoy?


A large modern liner foundering in calm seas?


There were medals and promotions aplenty but I couldn't help but feel a bit dissapointed.

It was too good to be true.
I spoke too soon.
It only lasted for one patrol.
The game crashed when I started the second patrol.

Anyway , a new clean install , mods enabled and some ships of the MFM manually added as usually.
Now the game runs fine.
I must not try any more experiments!

Oh well, if it helps - I'm in the same boat just adding a few ships manually. Once I update my rig the MFM will take to the seas in full force. :DL

U-28 leaves harbor, to patrol near the British Coast near the Orkney Islands, When a Task force is spotted racing down the eastern coast of Scotland. U-28 rushes to intercept, dreams of a British Capital dancing though the commanders head, as he approaches the English coast, he finds himself in a pickle of wonderful targets, a Large convoy heading south, a small convoy headed north, and the task force somewhere, unless it was in port.

Jan 26, 1940 0821

Damage to port and starboard rudders! we are under fire!!

Lt. Pies looks up from his navigation board, someone or some thing had caught U-28 unaware, he ordered scope depth, and sees his ashen lookout slide down the ladder.

C&D Class on direct heading towards us sir!

Looking though the scope, he sees the HMS Decoy charging with a bone in its teeth at his Boat. Calmly he asks for depth under keep. Then goes pale when he finds out the depth is only 75 meters.

He heard his navigator mutter "When they find us, dann ist aber die Kacke am Dampfen"

Pies is noted for being aggressive, but cool under fire, so he orders his boat to face the HMS Decoy, has he has four electric eels in it, and watches as the escort approaches.

1000 Meters - he orders tube one opened, and fires. he orders tube two opened and waits as he watches the stopwatch, it is a miss. He fires tube two and orders tubes 3 and 4 open, at 400 meters he knows the 2nd eel as missed, so he fires the last two, and orders a crash drive, lowering the scope, and finding god.

TORPEDO IMPACT!!! TORPEDO IMPACT!!

Cheers race though the boat, and lt. Pies orders his boat to scope depth. The HMS Decoy is sinking fast, but he sees smoke on the horizon, and he knows the other escorts are coming fast, so he turns tail and pushes his boat to get away from the sinking HMS Decoy, and into deeper water.

Lt. Pies lets himself smile, when suddenly a glance on the scope shows yet another escort coming head on to him. the boat is hit by pings. he fires the electric eel in a low percentage shot at the escort behind him, and orders depth to 70 meters. Then orders silence, for U-28 is to be depth charged.

Lt Pies gets his damage control team ready, as the men stay silent. the hydrophone man calmly tells as four (4!!) escorts circle the boat, pinging, dropping depth charges. Lt. Pies tries a tactic that if he hears the sound of screws overhead, then depth charge alert, to do a sudden burst of Flank speed, in the hope of avoiding the depth charges. The charges are endless, the watch officer looses count after 75, as boat after boat makes depth charge runs and tries to end U-28 run. There is no serious damage, but at 1032, there is a 5th(!!) escort that has arrive, and lays down a massive volley of depth charges. and U-28 shakes like a twig, and its bows plow into the mud, as emergency lights flicker on. Lt. Pies puts his damage control team into action, ordering them to give damage reports. Seeing organized Chaos up front.

The bow is badly damaged, as the Damage control team first controls, then begins to push back the emergency flooding. Lt. Pies does order the evacuation of those sections by non emergency crews, as the flooding was that much of a threat, however dewatering continued, even as depth charges kept falling, occasionally doing more and more damage. The shallow water helped for a first, as U-28 was at no risk of being crushed, but the flooding finally relented.

U-28 was on the bottom, in the mud, so the engine was turned off, as for the next five hours, U-28 was shaken, not stirred. each time it appeared that perhaps they where finished, as they pinged away, suddenly a depth charge would fall, breaking the damaged seals, and forcing the damage control teams to repair and dewater. But it was slowly working away, so carefully rising two meters, and going slowly, U-28 slipped away, and at 1732, surfaced, fresh air filling the boat. And U-28 sailed home. No crew being injured or killed in the action.

For this action, Lt. Pies received the Iron Cross, 2nd Class.

I just finished my third patrol in the Type VIIC U-529. we got into scapa flow and sank the HMS Hood. We escaped the flow with little damage and no casualties.

Uboatman 09-17-11 03:50 PM

U-52 back in Kiel after a successful 3rd Patrol around to the Western Approaches. Bagged a couple on the way round. Went quiet for a few days then the weather cleared up and found an outward bound convoy in BF17. The lone V&W escort spotted us at extreme range, went to periscope depth after it came to intercept me and took the destroyer out.

Returned to the surface and positioned for an attack on the convoy. Weather conditions were very good but not favourable for a surface attack, had to take out the 2 Fast Freighters 1st as they were the only ships armed, even then after 5 eels had to surface to finish of one and sustained minor damage to the hull, nevertheless went on to savage the remains of the convoy depleting all ammunition apart from the 20mm which was retained for the return to base
