Sneaking around in my patrol grid after nailing a couple of mechants on the surface with my deckgun i got a sonar contact...

Now the warship must obviously be a Destroyer escorting a small convoy ?

Must be an important convoy.

Well i think the results speak for themselves...

Except for the tacking of the last KG V in the line if im careful maybe i can get a shot on her from the rear....

If you look closely you can see my circle just to the right of the destroyer who by this stage has well and truly detected me.

This gave me an opertunity to fire a rear facing which crippled the second KG V.

Just gotta slip away from the dest so i can have another go at the Revenge... and then finish of the KG... Two torps left

Well not quite to plan that damn KG V wouldnt go down with the second torp. I think i hit too far forward of the main armament.

The revenge is toast...

Well out of torps i could just start on my way home and report the stricken Battleship or.... i could just go out past the range of its main guns and reload the front tube....

So be it i am a greedy bastard afterall.

Notice the nice black stain on the rear decking... Note to self dont surface to close to a Stricken battleship :P.
I am a very lucky man i should of been dead after 3 salvos almost split me in half. Apparently the british gunnery is as bad as i thought :P

Fantastisch!

And great screenshots.

Marvellous opportunity hunting, U-99, but no more than I would expect from a member of 7th Flotilla!

Schuss!

Good places for finding heavy warships would be at Scapa Flow and Loch Ewe...

One time I went sneaking into Loch Ewe where I encountered 2 Fiji class Cruisers and 3 V&W Destroyers lined up in the bay....

The destroyers were not that good again, but sinking 2 cruisers gave some renown and the knights cross 1st class.... :up:

Scapa Flow should be nice hunting grounds for trying to find a battleship or aircraft carrier.....Just mind the underwater opstacles that blocks the entrance........ :doh:
