it worked as Jeff said; I peered through the periscope, made sure I was locked, identified the target (might not have been necessary) and clicked. I expected the camera icon to light up, but it didn't, so I 'snapped' a sub and a Hiro Gunboat as well. Still didn't light up, but when I checked the map the target symbol was grey and the ships log said the mission had been completed. Hoorah! However, I nearly came unstuck as a subchaser was coming in from the sea, and there I am in about 30 feet of wet stuff. No chance I could get away, but of course I had to try. He DC'd me and I took damage - but so did he and did not circle round to have another go, so I limped off into deeper water and let my able crew do their stuff. As soon as I was able to safely surface I asked for more orders and was sent to recon Hiroshima. Oo-er, thoughts of Bungo Pete (is it?) came to mind. On the way I nearly got got by a Watasuki (SP?) destroyer - those chaps seem to know exactly where you are from 7000 yards. Anyway, escaped, and now I am in another 30 feet of water trying to get to Hiroshima before dawn - and I am not sure I am gonna make it....
