Now, y'see that's what I thought. Two dead crew and all those bust systems, I turned straight round and headed home.
But after about six hours all the systems were repaired, with the significant exceptions of the bow caps and attack periscope. But I could certainly have still tracked convoys even if I couldn't have attacked them.
When I got back in and looked at the patrol report, the Hull Integrity said 95% ... despite the boat showing all the signs of being on the edge of destuction, such as a total inability to hold depth, adgitated warnings from the Enigineer that we were 'taking damage' at 100m, etc. So now I think I could have got away with staying out there.
Thanks for reading, glad you enjoyed it
