I've a feeling this was one of those 'once in a lifetime' patrols. Eels? Steamers. 3 meters depth. Impact. The first 2 attacks were on the surface at night so I thought I'd risk firing only one torpedo, on the basis that it would be relatively easy to reposition myself for another attack in case I missed or got a dud. The third to fifth attacks were submerged daylight attacks. In each case the target was going slow enough (4-6 knots) that I judged I could risk a single torpedo, and if something went wrong I would still have time enough to send another. Plus I was on a bit of a roll by then. Some patrols everything just seems to come together  I ended up shooting real close in these attacks, from about 500-700 meters because I was so intent on making sure of hitting the forward cargo hold. I've just started patrol 6, been sent down to AN81. So far all I've seen is fishing trawlers and tugs. Like I said, some patrols you just get real lucky. |

 I'm assuming I stumbled on a shipping lane for heavy freight between Inverness and Scandinavia. You'll be up around there near the same time as I was. I'll be interested in seeing if this is such a good spot for anyone else, or if I was just real lucky with what vessel types spawned near me. Good Luck Herr Kaleun. Let us know how you get on. |
