Sank a C2 with ONE ! eel.

[bill clarke]

I am running NYGM TW 2.2, and last night played the happy times single mssion.
Well it seems I wasn't very good at getting in to the convoy as one the escorts must have picked me up and charged over the top of me dropping cans, well I got out of that undamaged, and loosed off 4 eels at a C2 and a tanker, and my stern tube at another tanker.
Well the escorts came back after me again and I was hit by a troop transport (but not damaged) anyway I get a report of a torp impact, and see that the C2 has been hit starboard way back in the rear, next thing my stern tubes eel connects with the tanker.
The tanker was pretty much unaffected (hit port side forward, small fire) but the C2 was sliding to a stop very quickly, and then settling by the stern, with in about 10 minutes as I was dodging more cans, the Nav reported "she's going down" ( that phrase always seems to excite me, ) sure enough she was going under, and rapidly.
I managed to fire another eel at the tanker I hit earlier and she erupted in flames and broke in half. My other two eels from the first salvo must have malfunctioned, but boy was I impressed with that C2's sinking.
Well done Teddy.
