Bad luck turns to good, and down goes a Liner
 
Twice I've encountered a Liner in a convoy, and twice I've ran out of torps before I could sink them. My last one was stationary and the convoy and escorts had moved on - a sitting duck! :damn:

Then I get my Type XXI. I'm cruising submerged and get a sound contact. It's closing fast. I maneuver into position, raise the scope...and there it is - an unescorted Passenger Liner! I have a full torpedo load and six forward tubes. Oh heaven.

Take that!

Third time lucky held true for me :D

Anyone else had a sudden turn of fortune on a patrol?

That;s the way to do it. :up:

My fortune keeps turning all the way... Sometimes I get my butt kicked all around and return to port with 9% Hull Integrity :rock: and on the next patrol I own a whole convoy without getting even a scratch om my boats paint.

Hans, hol die Farbe raus, wir rosten! :88)
