Back in the fight..

Been so long since I've played, dang near forgot how... so after about two years since a campaign, I loaded up a career in 44 and off. I found the TF for the Battle of the Philippine Sea coming out of the San Bern. My first attack, I had to figure all the buttons again, but got a decent set up, my first 3 torps in two years sent the Hiyo carrier down and two more damaged another carrier. I finally surfaced and gave chance after the group cleared to try and catch the damaged carrier, but it was still keeping up with the group at 17 kts or more. They drove me time and time again with planes and slowly the group got away......dern.

Yes, but you can console yourself knowing those planes are on their way to a Turkey Shoot, which won't be enjoyable for them.
