Unlucky

On the way home after a decent patrol I had 2 torps left for anything I ran into on the way, A contact report came in for a task force which appeared to be heading for Loch Ewe so I got myself into position close to the shore and waited. After 9 patrols without a Battleship in range I finally had my chance, A Nelson class with 5 escorts so I fired off my last 2 torpedoes at the Nelson, Only one of them hit right on the stern and put out the rudder. The ship began turning to Starboard and ran into one of the escorts slicing it in two then continued running in circles taking out another escort which exploded and sank before the crippled ship ran aground. 3 ships sunk and no credit for it

Ah well good practice and I managed to make it home so I can't really complain.
