Well maybe I'll return from the next one.

thats to bad, but i bet it was fun
the best time's I've hade playing is not when sinking ships but when under attack.just a coupe of patrols ago i was trying to slip by Dover, it was night and i came up to recharge and get some air. it wasn't storming but it was cloudy with fog and very choppy water. then a VW runs up on me and charges me guns blazing. i dove and just about got under when the VW run right over the front of the boat destroying the forward torpedo room and had heavy flooding. i was doing ok in evading his runs in till his buddy's showed up and i was taking on 3 destroyers. BOOM one propeller destroyed BOOM aft torpedo room flooding, the tail end of the boat was dragging the bottom and i could only make 1 knot, but we kept digging and repairing. it went on for 2 hr's like that in till they ran out of depth charges. one destroyer headed for home but the other 2 still wouldn't give up they followed me for another hr when all of a sudden they almost ran into each other and had to stop,while they un tangled there selves i changed course and they lost me and when they got going again they searched for about 15 minuets still trying to find me but they never did. so with a full load of torpedo's and a wrecked boat i headed for port.
