Line 48:
*World War II submarine actions were a shift in hunting between the sub and the escorts. Usually the sub would make an approach at the target inside the convoy. When detected or when it revealed itself by firing it's torpedoes the escorts would swarm over it in the hopes of either sinking it or neutralizing it by keeping it to low underwater to make an attack.
**Air raids were like this too with bombers hunting their target and fighters hunting the bombers.
**The "Unconditional Surrender" policy in World War II overall based on the assumption the German and Japanese governments of the time were too dangerous to exist
*Habsburg galleys laying at ambush for Muslim Corsairs were not just patrolling the coast but actively preying on the pirates. A galley's efficiency increased geometrically with the ability of the rowers. That is the peasants the raiders kidnapped would take ages to work in. While a captured corsair could have any prisoners chained to an oar right away in the confidence of their efficiency-because they were already reasonably tough, at least tougher than could be gotten from a fishing hamlet.
