Last night while once again patrolling near Scapa Flow in horrendous weather, i literally ran into a Destroyer TF. Wow, what an intense fight that ensued, i had torps flying from both bow and stern and the end tally was 6 dead destroyers, Hunts, C class and J class.
After this particular patrol i had sunk over 10K tons in warships alone (7 destroyers and 1 corvette) plus another 15K from the 3 merchants i found. This was hands down the most intense/gratifying/relieved to be back at port patrol i have undertaken since buying the game.
Now i want to set my sights on some big game, the closest i got was a Cruiser in the middle of a large convoy i ran across but with only 2 eels i didnt want to risk rushing in and missing and ending up a quick meal for the Cruiser and her Destroyer escorts.
