Total lack of patience, and an indignity at possibly having to use another torpedo, nearly got me killed the other day. Took out 4 ships with one torpedo each, but the last one just kept on steaming on, burning and listing.

I wanted about 20 minutes but it just wouldn't sink. Now, I knew there were armed merchants in the remains of the convoy but fog had rolled in, so I thought I might be safe. So I surfaced, no one attacked, and I started after the "floater". I started to shoot it and it started taking more damage, but still didn't sink.

Then my watch crew started calling out damage. One of the armed merchants had a bead on me and was shelling the crap out of me. But I HAD to sink this one merchant, I'd come so far heh.

Eventually I sunk it and crash dived to stop the assault from the other merchant. I was down to 30% hull and had lost an engine. But it was totally worth it... heh
