U-52 Returning home from an attack at Scapa Flow, happy to be alive after sinking the HMS Rodney, and getting beaten by a DD, even ending up at the bottom of Scapa Flow for some hours before getting out....
(Only 52% Hull integrity :O )

A cautionary tale about ragequitting



 

This whole attack was a big blunder on my part, because in order to get to good firing position I had to run with deck awash for a few minutes. I got strafed by a plane (minor damage) and the target ship spotted me, fired innacurately and started zig-zaging. I decided to go flank speed, submerged, to get as close as I can to minimize his chances of avoiding the torpedoes. I fired two at previously measured speed (7 or 8 knts), and the third one with higher speed (10 knts)

So, as you can clearly imagine, I was so furious about the duds, that I stopped the recording.
Then the third torpedo hit scoring a crit and sinking the ship on the spot.

Plane shots. On a side note - do you know of any WWII flight sim that lets you strafe submarines. I know that in CloD you can strafe and bomb ships in the Channel, but that's about it.
 


This Beaufort was called on my position after my foolish night gunning of two merchants.Another one (or the same after refuelling ) came in the morningThis hurricane came at dusk. I hate this patrol grid (AN1814, I guess we all have been there)


My plan after figuring out lone merchant course using four bearings method:
 

Normally I would go straight at it, since it's so close, but I want to see how this will pan out. Also, I think that it is some small (~2000 GRT) merchant and I will be thoroughly disappointed.
