I set all forward tubes for keel shots. Then fired two at the first BB at 2000 meters. The first torpedo prematurely detonated (I hate it when that happens) and the second one slid under just forward of the superstructure and destroyed the ship.
The second two were fired as the second ship sailed at 14 knots around the first ship bringing it right across my bow at about 700 meters. One amidships and the second aimed at the rear guns...it went dead in the water and sank by the stern.
This is my second campaign and I never ran into a single task force in the first (but received lots of radio reports early on even though they were far away). I thought I read somewhere that the task forces after 1941 would only consist of light cruisers and escort carriers.
Now that I think of it, I've never seen an auxiliary cruiser in this or the first campaign. Where are they?
