Guess who wins?

Bismarck

!!!

Took 2 tries at the same patrol (Revenge finished me off after I polished off the hood).

Hood - 48360 tons, Revenge 31000 tons, 8 Tribals 14800 tons, plus a few merchants bagged earlier for a total of 129268 tons in one patrol.

I could have gone for more shipping, but my rudders had been shot off and couldn't steer. So there's some historical accuracy there, even though it's slim. Unfortunately the only way I could return to base was to 'exit-patrol'. But after such success - I wasn't going to throw that away.

If you guys who're also experimenting with the warship mod want to try it out, I think it's the morning of January 24th, 1940. The task force heads south from Loch Ewe, towards the northern coast of Ireland.
