ive had DD's blow their entire back off, and then sink right by my periscope when i come up to see what all the comotion was about... one time i attacked a convoyed, took out 3 cargos and one troop liner each with 1 torp to the broilers on all of em. then forced to dive and evade, while i was playing cat and mouse i heard a new contact... warship, longrange, berring about 90 degrees... it was closing fast... i heard huge explosions and lots of sinking merchants, so i decided to come on up, to my amazement the bloody admiral kipper had come to my rescue!
with the destroyers distracted i manned the deckgun and the 37mm AA myself and took out many other ships, incuding a black swan with 105 shells... disabled her rudder first then prop wiht the 37mm
the kipper fought valiantly but was severely damaged, so i stayed with her for awhile, the british sent a taskforce ( or maybe they found us by chance... but in my head they sent it) and we managed to destroy the ships, (bloody kipper stole most of my torp kills before my damn torps got there!!!) with her fore guns out of commission i left her around the tip of the netherlands to go back to germany for repairs, then continued with my patrol... probably one of the most exicting ones ive had!
