First time EVER in months of playing that a convoy had suitable targets for a simulatneous 5 eel attack.
3,4 5,1,2 ......impact,impact, impact, impact,impact.
1 disintegrated instantly and 3 more of the 5 targets went down while I was sweating it out deep with silent running and being worked over worse than I've ever seen in deep water. Took about an hour to disengage.
What a rush!
My approach was what (I think) most would find typical...slipped the leading escort and worked my way in perpendicular to track. I also carefully positioned myself to be inside the convoy at time of launch. When I noticed (rather late) that almost all of the leading elements of the convoy were nice targets, I started thinking hard and fast and began calculating launch times (tubes already allocated as mag-shots and what was free for impact-only). For once, I got it all right and was rewarded with 5 hits (3 of them within milliseconds of each other) which netted me 4 sinkings (Fiji was hit but didn't drop due to mental error on my part...hit in the forward-most part of the bow section). Best convoy attack EVER for me in ships sunk vs time!
What NYGM 2.2 lacks in ease, it more than makes up for in oportunity!
