LOL, I never thought of that!
Another fun attack I had a couple of nights ago:
I was north of England when I spotted a destroyer and two huge Auxillary Cruisers heading east at 18 knots. I was north of them. It was darkish, so I went flank on the surface heading south. I opened up with 2 torps at each cruiser from 5km, set for magnetic detonation. This was the max range of the electric torps I had.
One premature. 2 ran out of gas before impact, and one missed.
They convoy was steaming away. So...I opened up with the deck gun at about 4500m. The lead destroyer was far away and could not shoot back. The cruisers opened up on me, but did not hit me, but I am a good gunner and got several strikes on both cruisers before the lead destroyer got close enough that I had to dive.
I ran away from the destroyer until he got within 500m and I put a magnetic torp under his chin from the rear tube and blew him up.
Shortly before that, one of the cruisers sank! I guess I chewed him up pretty good!
Moreover, both cruisers had turned to engage me! I figured they would keep running, but no, they both turned to engage! Well with the escort out of the way and one cruiser sunk, I put up the scope and saw the last cruiser burning in the night. I easily got into firing position while submerged and put another eel in her side and down she went!
Each cruiser was like 31,000 tons.
