I'm just about to enter the East China Sea and get to my mission objective, but am getting scrunched into a very awkward position by two medium speed convoys and an enemy Task Force. One convoy bearing about 040 is 6 miles ahead of me heading SW and the second, about the same distance, bears 310 heading NE. Coming up behind me about 10 miles back and a bit to the south, I have an enemy task force heading west. Also have land in close proximity to the north. I think I'm getting boxed in! It's also my first mission while running with limited batteries, fuel, and air.

My inkling is that this is an AI setup where I get pretty well drubbed. There's a likelihood that there may be as many as twelve destroyers in the immediate vicinity: four with each convoy, and four with the Task Group.

This might be one of those situations where it's best to slip away to fight another day, or later today or maybe tonight???

But Ooooh, the temptation...
