So...I know all the buzz is about the expansion right now, but I've managed to experience one of those "gaming moments" that make gaming worthwhile. As I was saying, I finally find the Yamoto after more than a year. After many reloads (hey, I may never see her again) I managed to fire my 4 fish up front and my 4 stern tubes for 7 solid, spread hits...most of them set to about 35 ft depth. I evade the destroyers and end around for a dawn attack. 4 fish left. Many more attempts, tried max depth settings with magnetic exploders (which worked), minimum depth, different aiming points, you name it... After 11 fish pumped into the Yamoto, the only visual evidence of damage was that she was riding a few feet lower in the water!
I did get her to ram an escort as she began evasions once And I did manage to kill a few sailors manning her guns...Anyway, as frustrating as it was, the Yamoto is definately now my white whale...I've got a few screenshots, but I must admit that I don't know how to post them here in the forum! So, to all who've managed to actually sink this beast...WELL done!
