North Atlantic '84 Soviet 27 | Sub and Convoy | Cold Waters w/DotMod

08-NOV-84 North of Murmansk
K-371 (Victor II) has returned to Murmansk, reloaded, refitted, and ready to resume operations. Our land war in Europe was going well, but our Scandinavian operations have stalled, with NATO counterattacks in Norway.
GLAVCOM have ordered us to intercept NATO sub assigned to penetrate Barent Sea to interrupt our own resupply missions.
We chose to setup north-northwest of Andoya.
10-NOV-84 Eastern Norwegian Sea
We have intercepted the enemy sub, which appears to be a Permit-class Yankee boat.
Crewman Andreyev deserves a medal for dropping the Vjuga-65 directly on top of the Yankee sub, so close it barely had time to pop a noisemaker before being struck and sunk.
Our new orders are to transit to Norwegian coast, where NATO plans to use local coastal convoys to supply their holdings. We are to blockade the route between Bergen and Trondheim.
11-NOV-84 Coastal waters near Bergen
We have intercepted the convoy in shallow waters off Bergen.
We quickly located an escort and a merchant, only to realize this merchant is a neutral transiting the area. It took a while, but we were able to stay mostly behind the 2 escorts, and located the 2 small NATO freighters they were escorting, and closed to within 11 km. We sank both freighters with TEST-71 and turned north to leave the area, leaving two very confused escorts behind.
01:46 Intercepted subsurface contact
08:20 Permit is doomed
09:50 Intercepted convoy at Bergen
16:10 Both freighters are going down, escorts unaware

This will be my second attempt of Soviet campaign. If you want to watch the first version: • (CCPlays) 1984 Soviet ...
The year is 1984. For whatever reason that sounds plausible, the tension between the West and Soviet Union went taut, then snapped into open war. The Soviet Army can take Europe, if the Soviet Navy can stop or at least slow the amount of reinforcements reaching continental Europe from the US. And as a captain of a Soviet navy submarine, I will do my duty for the Motherland.
There is one mod to the campaign. I used the "Small Mods" guide (which I wrote, by the way) to remove the prestige requirement so I start in a Victor II, instead of the deathtrap diesel-electric subs like the Whiskey boats. You can learn how to do that here:
