on a good day i decided to get through the channel of Gibraltar.
but as i came furhter, the amount of destroyers on patrol increased.
so i only could get passed submerged. but i dind't have enough power left in my batteries. so i decided to get back. for a few hours, it was quiet.
then my radioman heared signals from many ships. i swapped to my map and saw some strange things. 5 singals formed a straigh line. so i got to periscope depth and there i saw 3 battleships!!
a Revenge a the top and just behind it, a Nelson Battleship. and then, just further away another Revenge Battleship. so i came in position and fired 4 torpedo's, 2 at the first Revenge and 2 at the Nelson. and then i got spotted. to bad they went to evasive manouvres. but i already launched my torps so i hoped for the best. and it was very good!! 1 torpedo for the revenge missed, but the other hit the revenge in the machineroom. he slowed down. my other 2 torps hit the nelson in his amunitioncompartment. he was blown away by his own amunition. he was 36.000 TONS!!!!
the revenge managed to speed up again and i lost the two remaining battleships. but there were around 15 other ships now searching for me, i had been DC'ed many times. i have some good pictures of it. but i managed to survive it all and went home wit everything destroyed on the deck. my deckgun, flakgun and my bridge, all destroyed. i had also one electric engine destroyed. but as those torps were my last, i went home!
