Default Another Ubi report


Sorry bout sizing, will fix it later.

Here is story of me trying to sink four Yamato BB's, but only got 3.

Caught Kurita SE out of
the Bern, hit first Y with 6 M16's, all near bow, **** thing caught fire and kept going.


Hit the Y behind me with 3, stopped it, one miss, 2 more sunk it.






The other Y put out the fires fast and took off lagging behind the main group, but making 19kts.
I set all my capital ships to elite, so they repair too fast.

I couldn't catch it as the group changed course, but it finally turned back. I dived deep under main group and it finally came up.



I chased the group, gonna cut it off coming into Brunei. I lost full contact, but regained it back in the Bern, but the Y's didn't respawn.
They beat me back to Brunei. It left again early Nov, so I waited and passed up several nice BB TF. It finally came up with a nice BB group.





So 3 Y's sunk, wasted two torps that were misses, so four M16's left. I could'n't find the other Y when it left, so I took out a Hiyo.
Funny, I hit it with two in the bow, it kept going full speed with it's bow under water. It went on 20 nm's before the bow went under so far the props came out of the water, spinning at full speed in the air, it went no where. It finally sunk hours later.




Here is the convoy I attacked later. With the storm I was able to have at it with all guns. Some great action.











Aftermath of storm battle.


I think I could've went over
300K with no refit, but wasted a lot of gun ammo on 3 Type C escorts and smaller merchants, not to mention gun barrel flying all over the place due to waves. Hate I didn't take time to search all the large merchants.
