Well, I was out on one patrol and had destroyed numerous aircraft, was getting tired of running from these things. My crew must have shot down at least 20 airplanes so far. I was really proud of my GM's and was sure to award them when we went back to pearl. We had also sunk around 40,000 tons so far on that patrol, it couldn't be going any better, or so we thought. I decided it was time to make a run back to to pearl for a quik re-fit and head back out. On the way back I decided that if any more planes were to be spotted we were going to submerge. Two planes were spotted and and I ordered a dive to pd. One of those birds managed to score several hits and I was taking on water preety quick. My port side diesel and electric engines were destroyed. Our angle was ever increasing and I ordered to blow balast. We surfaced, the planes were gone and repairs were made, oddly enough we were not able to get underway. Though it showed my stb side engines were fine
. Some BS eh? So we were dead in the water. So being there were no AS ships modeled in the game (which should come about as it was a reality in WW2) to come to our aid, I decided instead of ending the game we would go out in style. We managed to last 2 days and shot down another 6 planes before 2 came in and sunk us.
