I encountered the Illustrious Carrier Group operating off Narvik during the Norwegian campaign in April '40. Can't remember if she had BB's supporting her or just a couple of Fiji's but I did manage to sink her with four T1's into the midsection! First and only career carrier sinking so far, but tis only Jan '41 so long time to go!

Thats using Rub + SH3 Commander with various aesthetic mods. There seems to be an abundance of Task Force groups patrolling the Med and the waters close to England but I've never got close enough to spot a ship let alone engage any. Funnily enough out where most of the action is in the Nord Atlantique I've never gotten so much as a contact report from BDU regarding a marauding Task Force. Strange that.
