Scapa Flow

I accepted the Scapa Flow scenario and successfully sunk the Royal Oak. However, there are 12 or so Destroyers and Corvettes that hunt your butt. Did the Skipper experience this many U-boat hunters or is the game designers adding a bit of a challenge when attempting escape?

Whatever the case, I learned a lot about the mechanics of the game evading the hunters, rendering aid to sailors, repairs and patience waiting it out on the bottom. Many of the crew received XP and other abilities throughout the scenario. I'm close to open water and out of range of the hunters.

Overall, it is a great simulation experience short of the sweat, blood, tears and fear of the real occurrence. Job well done developers.
