Awww.. RIPPED OFF!

Made it to April 3, 1945.

I'm in my Type XXI, ripping up a convoy west of England. I've got 22 homing torpedoes in my stores.

I take down 4 destroyers, and Ore Freighter, a merchant, and a tanker. I swing around and fire 2 torps at another tanker, then dive for it. I'm going to go deep and save my remaining homers and maybe get away in the rough seas.

I'm passing under the tanker and it explodes. My scope is not fully retracted yet and I can see pieces falling off of the tanker and ONTO ME. My sub is taking all kinds of damage and before I can do anything GAME OVER.

I didn't think exploding ship damage would hurt me under water.

What a rip off! I think the war would have ended if I had gone to port. I was going to go to La Rochelle as a Das Boot tribute.

I should have BEEN LESS AGRESSIVE!
