My sub destroyed by explosion of tanker?

No, I was just messing around and didn't think it would actually explode.

Those tankers and ammo carriers can take you OUT! Yes, you were a bit close there and paid the price.

Steve, I have a lit stick of dynamite I'd like you to hold. I am virtually certain it won't go off...

You should've been on the bridge. Nothing like actually seeing all that fire and metal as it comes flying right at you ... gives one a healthy respect for burning ships.

Don't feel bad Dgsbdy, I made the mistake of trying to slip away under a sinking freighter once

I've never done that one, but I've seen reports by more than one player who did.

Tried to slip under a CV once, it was listing heavily to port from three of my torpedos and as soon as I got under her she capsized and pinned me under the flight deck. A CV will sink much faster than you can dive believe me
