So far Patrol #20 (Take 2) is going quite poorly. I've losted seven men (Seven!!!) during two running gunfights with armed merchants, in exchange for a meager ±7000 tons. Seven men! All my qualified watchmen/gunners taken out by 3 ridiculously lucky shots - The first battle was at night, and two hits killed my deck gun crew and soon after my flak gunner, and then another crew killed by a shot from 3000 yards during a daylight action near the Rockall Bank. I would've expected this in 1942 or later, but 1940?


I wonder if this is how the crew of U-56 felt after their failed attack on the Nelson...
