Push em down!

[Carcassonne]

Started my second career the other night. I set sail with my VIIB to my assigned grid. Nothing spectacular happend the entire trip. See ship, aim gun/eels, fire, ship sinks.

Well, on my way home I was out of eels and had only 5 rounds of HE deck ammo. I came across a small merchant and emptied my rounds on her. She fell to 0 knots and was listed severly. I waited for 2 hours game time and she still didn't sink. In frustration I decided to replicate the roman name. I charged her at flank and hit her just fore of the bridge. The blow was enough to get the Enemy Unit Destroyed message. I gave the emergency back command and came off her listing deck. Within 10 minutes game time she keeled up and sank. I even got the renown.

Damage? I took about a 10% hit for the collision which was far less than I expected. I sailed the ramining 600km home and all was well. My 2nd flottilla peers have now given me the nickname "Bull".

Try it sometime, the metal on metal sounds are tortureous when your sound is cranked up
