Just found the Hood approaching Scapa Flow from the West (grid AN15) on 6th Sep 1939 (in GWX). She was travelling with HMS Renown and HMS Repulse and 4 destroyers in a very loose defending formation.
Playing with a Type XXI (i.e. cheating) I managed to sink all three battleships and two destroyers. With a slower boat and without acoustic torpedoes it's probably still quite possible to sink one, or maybe two, of the battleships and live to tell the tale.
