Tonight I made an attack on a convoy in my Type XXI. But a destroyer tossed a side-launch DC that landed right on top of us.
Destroyed the fuel tank and both diesels. Took me down to 55% HI.
I successfully took down 7 escorts with homing torpedoes and successfully evaded the rest to get away.
But I could not get home since my engines were dead.
I decided to surface every day for 3 days and radio home, then submerge and sit out the day. I figured if I could last that long I will pretend help arrived and was able to get our engine fixed enough to get home.
