Wow what luck!

Last night during a career patrol I fired a stern torpedo at a ship in the outer column. It completely missed my intended target and sailed harmlessly outside the convoy perimeter. "That's it!" I thought, then recalled that there was a wing escort not too far away. I thought to myself, "Wouldn't it be nice if it hit that beggar, then I would have an open flank for my next attack. It's happened before." Then I thought, "Nah, that's a once in a lifetime fluke." A few minutes later I hear the crew cheering. Yes, it hit the escort, but did not sink it. Her wrath was aroused and she eventually got a lock on me. She pounded me with one well placed brace of charges and did a lot of damage, which made my decision for me not to pursue the convoy into shallower waters. After about half a day I finally got everything repaired [I am using the longer repair times mod, which makes the game much more realistic.]

What a game, never the same thing twice in a row!

Look in the mods section here on Subsim. There's five pages or so for gameplay mods, as well as a section for graphics, etc.
