Personally, I think you were very lucky.
When I get down to 3 or less torpedoes I just go home.

Playing GWX (100%), in November 1939 my VIIB picked up a convoy inbound the Bristol Channel being escorted by
HMS Nelson et al. With a pair of DDs headed my way, I freaked and fired a full spread at 2 degrees. One missed, three hit
Nelson and took her out. Medals all around and drank free at the cabaret!
Gluck!
BTW, when playing NYGM, a VIIB in 1939 only gets 4 forward and 1 aft - no reloads. RTB with 3 forward doesn't seem like a viable option in that case.
YMMV.
