Congrats rifleman! Funny you brought this up. I was on my 2nd patrol on 05 SEP 39, in sector BF39 after actually sinking a Brit tanker in my ordered patrol area. I get a contact report from OKM about a convoy due north of my last known position so I set course and caught up with the slow convoy. I took a peek when I got to within 3000 meters of the outside merchant and two ships in was Rodney at 7 knots. Set a salvo of 4 bow torps for almost a 90 degree shot with a two degree spread and 12 meter depth, mag pistole. 3 hits and battleship sunk. 40 minutes of DCing later, I'm trailing the convoy again with night fall coming soon. A large tanker and 2 large dry ships are my next potential victims.....what a game!
