Hello, New captain reporting for duty.
Just recently began playing this game and slowly getting the hang of it. Decided to report on my latest mission.
Had a really boring patrol out of Brest tp BE59. Spotted nothing in there. Could have stayed longer but what the hey.....
Planned a small detour back home by first going ENE towards Ireland and then down again to Brest. Hoping to spot a ship or two.
Got a report on a ship and planned an intercept course. At first no contact so returned to plotted course when suddenly: "SHIP SPOTTED!". Down to periscope depth and chased the Coastal Merchant.
FYI, this was at night. Went back up and decided to kill it with my deckgun.
Started firing the deckgun when suddenly I spotted a second plume of smoke.
Luckily it was a tanker. to be safe I fired a torpedo to both which both hit their target.
The merchant was badly crippled but the tanked barely noticed it. Finished off both with the deckgun and went back home.
There another ship was spotted. A Flower class. Back to periscope depth and fire away another torpedo. She never knew what hit her and went down right away.
The rest of the trip was uneventfull sadly
PS: Do you guys stay out much longer then the required 24 hours in your assigned sector??
