I need to update my spreadsheet, it was straight typing from Alden, that's why I was saying if anything the numbers would be high since claimed hits were higher than real hits, likely. Alden was more concerned with confirming the results of the attacks and targets, and only lists the shots fired/hits from the patrol reports.

The most hits survived by a BB, however, was 2, and the fewest to sink was also 3.

So CAs were 4 survived, with one sunk by 3 (corrected).

I need to double check the lighter ships, I put all in fron Alden, and checked starting with the big boys vs the troms. Need to check all.

shouldnt that be the other way around? a cruiser should be easier to sink than a BB
I didn't make that up, that is what happened in RL.

The most hits survived by a BB was only that there were few attacks on BBs. No BB was torpedoed by a sub with 4, so they might have survived. More CAs were attacked, so there is more data. <shrug>

No akizuki DD hit with 1 fish sank, for example, and there were several hits like that.
