I came out of it having sunk a total of 90 000 tonnes, including the battleship HMS Nelson, and 3 Pyro Ammunition Carriers (great explosions). The hardest part was deciding which crew members recieved the assorted 43 medals!

I have played Silent Hunter II, but I've never got anything like that. Is a result like this unusual, or has anyone else ever recieved sunk such a surprising amount?
To put things into perspective my vert first patrol (stock SH3) with my IID yielded 5000 tons and on my GWX career my first patrol on VIIB yielded a bit less than 20000 tons.:p You did well
