My first one too. I saved the game midway so its not all lost.
I came across a large merchant convoy escorted by 3 destroyers in the Jawa straights while on my way to patrol in the south china sea. I managed to sink over a 100 thousand tones of shipping. I think thats about 4 large merchants and all 3 of the destroyers. I got hounded by aircraft and used every single round of ammunition including the deck guns. During my surface engagements a destroyer managed to flood my aft torpedo compartment leaving me slightly crippled but still running, and I hadn't got to the patrol area yet. I decided that enough was enough and we had done enough damage and headed back to fremantle (whilst being hounded by Jap aircraft). I got to port and refit but I should have saved because then I CTD (for the first time) and lost my progress :(
All that for nothing. I was so proud of myself managing to get all that shipping and get back to port.
