Is it the plotting ? The constant manual calculation and ploting of speed and bearing of target ships ?
Or is it the reward of accurately navigating to a perfect firing position without being spotted ? The just reward for my target plotting efforts.
And what about the moment of reckoning. That heart pumping moment you decide everything is ready and then press the red button...then wait. Watching the torpedoes wake slowly disapear through the periscope. !5 Seconds. Will i have time to fire another if they miss ? 10 Seconds. All I can hear is the creaking of the sub. 5 Seconds. 4 3. 2. 1.... nothing ...Duds?!!! Both of them ? No Surely not! Did I miss ?.......how the hell could I have missed ?
BOOM!
.....BOOM!....hurrah etc..
And then there's the escape. All four tubes fired. Dive to 50. New course 180 degrees. Lets get the feck out of here!...Ping....Ping
So whats yours ? Whats the bit in the game that rings your bell ?
Answers on a postcard please.
