The second one comes and im defensless soo i turn, but it wasnt enough. lucky thing is though, my periscope bashed it and killed it ( at the time). then the oher 1 came around and DCed again. 85% hull damage or something, then hes ABOUT to come finish me when BAM "torpedo impact" (at the time my expression was this: :haha ::woo t:) the cutie hadnt given up (bless its soul) and impacted on the side of the destroyer, and he capsized.

That is a hilarious story. The funniest part was picturing it happening in my mind while I was reading your account of it. I have tried them in the past and I do believe their maximum range (probably due to the low speed) is somewhere in the vicinity of 12,000yds.
