Task Force

I just played through it. We managed to nail the Fuso because I fired on her until she lit up. The Ise took two hits and started a minor fire midship. And the aft crew was able to blow the crap out of Takao that snuck up behind me (didn't see him coming in all the excitement). Waited until it was 90 angle from the back and fired both torps - 1 midship and one just behind the nose... same solution, slightly different timing since the first tube was already open before I fired.

After that, I just dove to 100 and set the screws spinning while under silent running and made a 160 angle away from the task force's heading. Done!

..... and then a seaplane nailed me. Doh! The bugger got me dead center on his 6th pass. I couldn't believe I couldn't hit him.
