Default Revenge Class or the Rodney

As of right now, I'm staring at both ships, at anchor, with a full load of torpedoes. On a previous patrol, I put 3 shots into the Rodney with little affect. Which ship should i make a run at?

Go with tonnage. I forget which one is bigger, if you have to choose.

But i'd shoot at both.

Aim for underneath the ammo mags.

2 at each, all 4 at mags.

run and hide, and then come back if you dont sink em both...

The yare at anchor? Then, in theory, if you snuck into port w/o shooting anything, they should be vulnerable to two torps....if your playing stock. Personaly, if i had only one chance though, i'd go for the Nelson. More tonnage, right?

I enjoyed that. The English are one battleship down in 1939

I'd go for Rodney as she was the more valuable asset, the R class battleships were second rate units by 1939.
