From:Bdu
To:U-69
"Remain undetected and continue following contact/convoyAvailable submarines are heading to your patrol area"
A couple of hours after this message, messages like this one begin to be received from one or more allied submarines:
"1/21/1942 9:29 AM
From:U-357
To:U-69
"Requesting bearing signal from contact keeper"
Another variant of the previous message is when other submarines arrive indicating that they will attack from the port or starboard vector.
However, here I no longer know if it is pure rhetoric of the message, or I really have to send them the bearing again, which I do by sending a new contact report, but without much effect, since these allied submarines disappear after this message, I suppose ( I want to believe) that they submerge, but I have never witnessed an actual attack by AI submarines.
What I have actually witnessed is aviation attacks against the convoy, a few hours after the contact report. (In the Mediterranean, not in the Atlantic), I suppose that for this there must be an air base within the range.

Exactly what I have seen too, I think the sub has to disappear because I've listened for it on hydrophones but never heard anything.
I will keep trying I suppose, id love to see a wolfpack in action. On that note I also get messages of wolfpacks attacking convoys in other grud squares, are these just immersion messages or is something actually happening in game?
