In the words of Balz...

My torpedos lack the Boom Boom!

On my first patrol with GWX2.0 in September 1939. Because i have learned the need for Panache down the years, so i decided to hightail it west as quickly as I could to try and get through the Straits of Dover before the war began, successfully as it turned out.

So I sink my first ship of the war, a tramp steamer, with a single torpedo in a pitch black night. So far so good, this GWX lark is easy!

However, since then i've hit 2 small cargos and had the torpedos fail to explode (and missed with several other shots hem hem hem.)... does my boom boom to shot ratio improve as the war goes on? Or are wretched Bolshevik sabateurs going to keep wreckingmy war?

The Reich's best minds are hard at work increasing the boom-boom ratio in our torpedoes. Balz, just sank a large freighter and a large Tanker with one torpedo each. Reports he had trouble from some very persistent escorts.
