doubtful, i couldnt even save it in the single mission there were too many ships to sink. bismark didnt seem to be doing a great job of making it easier since i took a hit from her. she fired a shot at a ship but it fell way short and i was in the middle and she took out my periscope :nope:

I think no matter what you do the Bismark is sunk in the end. If you can go to the area though you might be able to attack the capital ships of the Home Fleet.
You have plenty of time to think about it, you should be entering the Bay of Biscay sometime tomorrow. :rotfl:

If your fortunate to get within viewing distance of her you'll find she doesn't actually sink despite the radio message to the contrary (IIRC) :oops:

It does not matter if you sink every British ship out there. The Bismark will circle for awhile and finally sink on it's own.

I've played the single mission and saved the Bismarck several times. I send a pair of torps to each of the battleships, and then singles to the destroyers. Half sink and the other half are damaged enough to be slowed down considerably. If they're dead in the water, the Bismarck targets them and they're dead fish. The Bismarck and I each sink about half of the battle fleet, leaving just the two of us to sail away.

For fleeting moment it would be cool to change history concerning the Bismarck but alas, she must go down no matter what you attempt.
