Been playing my last patrol (Jan 1941 now) and ibe realized that if "thrills" is the issue...
Forget convoys!
Task groups are the juiciest, most exciting targets this game has to offer.
I just sank the
HMS Hood! he was travling as part of a task force in AM27 (i was looking for convoys there). Even after taking a full salvo of four torpedos on his port, he stayed at float for quite a while longer.
The other ships were one (or two?) more battlecruisers, several destroyers and some cruisers. They bombed the living poop out of me for a while, but i managed to evade them
I bet becoming a "task force" hunter killer uboat is as historical as a chineese man riding a bicycle to the moon to conmemorate the Apollo landings, but i dont care. Task group hunting is the best!
And if Donitz makes a tandrum because i sink carriers and battleships instead of merchants carrying gas, bolts and ore, then he can go get himself another skipper.
