i know what you mean
i spend nearly an hour dodgeing destroyers to make my way into new york harbour, sink a liberty cargo, a c2 cargo, and a t3 tanker, spend about half an hour sneaking back out, i report to bdu of my exploits, and all i get is, keep up the good work. they could say something more supportive, like, good job kaptain, what a great succsess, not just the boring old keep up the good work. on that same patrol however, i got a radio message that made sense. after my venture into new york harbour, i made my way south to the carribean, sunk a lone merchant, i ended up using four friggen torpedoes on the thing, first i fired a two torpedo spread, 1 hit, the other was a dud, the first torp wasnt enough to sink her, so i fired another to finish her off. what do ya know, another dud. number four took her down, but four torpedos on a lone merchant did not help my confidence. i was all the way in the carribean, low on fuel, low on torpedos, badly battle scared from my various run in's with destroyers and aircraft, and they radio'd something that made sense. return to base!
good hunting everyone!
