Best patrol ever! Woohoo

after complaining about an absolute sh1tty beatles patrol I started off Corrientes.

As I was not assigned to a specific patrol grid I thought "why not take a lookaround at Gibraltar ... and then head towards BF17/BE39"

While crusing around "the funnel" suddenly my PC starts loading something ... so I got to periscope depth and SO anounces me a single warship coming towards me ... so why not take a look?

Suddenly my SO anounces another warship... and another warship... and another one... 7 warships... not one freighter!

It was a taskforce!

taking a closer look I saw ... WOOHOO ... a battleship... and a carrier! WOOHOO

it was the Nelson and an Illustrious and abunch of DDs

Sneaked past the first DD.... but the second heard me somehow! ... so FULL SPEED AHEAD! and in range of the NELSON... fired a double shot if TIIIs and hit it:

the Illustrious then ran into the wreck and stopped....

EASY Target

took three torps and finally sank.

Nelson plus a carrier!

Of course I had to play Tom and Jerry with the DDs... while I was Jerry fobbing the DDs and finally getting the "cheese"

I then had to pay my price... I was facing 7 DDs (and/or DEs... dunno was at 180m

making a run for it.

So I spend 5 torps on the Nelson and a Illustrious giving me 59.000t

After 4h of zig zagging and evading Depth charges I kept on with my plan and headed to BF17...

I then ran into a BIG convoy with only one Black Swan as guard :
Three Big Freighters : 3* 12000
One Big Tanke: 13000
One Tanker: 11000

WOHOO!

As I had fired my last torp and hte Black swan was not searching me anymore I sneaked away heading towards home... on my way home my WO suddenly tells me:
"ENEMY SPOTTED!"

another black swan... wth? .. and it was burning!
I took a look around and found this:

Looks like I was just a tad too late to help out a fellow Kaleun in a dogfight with that Black Swan.

I raised to the surface... manned my Deackgun and shot the Swan!

(took just 4 hits)

What a patrol!

116255t in one patrol!
