TWOS can be so epic but so frustrating too...!

2 weeks of sea patrol, and no good prey to sink...
1 torp fired to a destroyer, missed.
Accomplished my 3 patrol area without no contacts, except a convoy i couldn’t reach (too fast)
Back from AK grid area to Southern Ireland... still nothing except coastal boats...
Patrolling South England, no ennemy merchants (but neutrals!) and plenty destroyers small groups. Not to say i let them alone...and kind of sail away
Was very disappointed (as all my crew BTW) when i crossed 2 destroyers path...
Was in very good position. Almost 90°, and 1000m far.
Decided to launch a salvo of 4 (to be sure to hit something) with a spread angle of 2°...
Calm sea, no waves, just perfect...
Guess what???
2 hits, 2 duds!!

After escaping depth charges, i’m Heading Lorient, my new base... with zero tonnage
Just like it was sometime in RL...
