Last night I ran into a small convoy with two passenger liners escorted by 4 DD's. I managed to produce my worst TDC solution to date, and fired all six bow tubes in a spread to compensate for the poor solution at the largest passenger liner. Five torps missed aft, and I cursed myself for rushing the approach when the 6th hit in the aft part with a loud WHACK! To my amazement it sank stern first, and while it was going down, one of the torps that missed struck a DD behind the liner and sank it. I was pretty pleased with my luck I must say.
