Finally a Battleship

Lucky bugger

I've never ever seen one in full career mode. It's probably best if I didn't anyway, as I would crap myself and blow the kill out my arse

Yeah, it's been the strangest start to a career I've had. On my first patrol I ran into a Southampton cruiser and sunk her as well. I'll probably end up getting sunk by a mine somewhere--everything is going to well.

I remember my biggest prey so far has been a hospital ship and a line crusier. To sink or not to sink anyway they were too tempting not to. I mean that's the whole point of game. I missed

being just a game, I still can't fire (and wouldn't), an eel at a hospital ship. I've accidentally hit a neutral, in a convoy, after one of my eels went under a tommy merchant, and hit the "green" ship. (it didn't sink).

Don't you get shot for sinking hospital ships on RTB in game?

Might be lucky that you missed afterall!

For those bold, cheating or just plain lucky (I was the third), on the 31st of December 1944 in Grid AM 36, about 6 30 in the morning, two battleships with 8 escorts ran over me. Two well aimed torpedos were able to find the spot between the armor belt and torpedo blisters and sink the elderly HMS Revenge. The HMS Rodney proved to be far more durable, two torpedos wounded her and slowed her enough that two more torpedos could carry the killing blow. The depth is 112 meters and I was able to cuddle close to the sinking hulks, being lost amongst the twisted wreckage and after 2 horrible days I was able to slither away.
