I almost bagged the HMS Nelson, but I left the periscope up too long (>30 seconds). I was worried about the high waves messing up the aim. Before I loosed a salvo, searchlights came on and the Nelson turned into my torpedoes. A shot aimed for the magagzines went ahead of the bow. Two torpedoes hit dead center, but it wasnt enough to take her down. Still, if all goes well I'm going into port with 90,000 tons.
In another career, if I do Weserabung again, I'm going to hang out closer to Narvik. All the capitolships head that way plus there's an amphibious force. If I die and start another carreer I'll give it a try.
