The bottom’s out of my tub; I’ve been playing a pbem game where Allied merchant shipping in the Atlantic has been wiped out twice by a skillful opponent using U-boats.
This I did not foresee, and as merchant ships take 2/3 of a year to build, I had pull most of my transports from around the world and use them as merchant shipping to keep the rebel cause from taking over in the UK.
I’ve placed large number of destroyers and light cruisers under a leader with sub chasing skills into my merchant ship stack, but it doesn’t seem to help much.
How does one counter the U-boat scourge?
