I just had a great third patrol, first one for my new VIIB. While going along my Watchman said 'Ship spotted' in a very excited tone of voice. Took a look and a Task Force was coming down the pipe in front of me at 21 kts! To make a long story short, I had to react quickly, but I managedd to get in front of the escort on the TF's flank and I set myself up and aimed at an HMS Rodney at a range of around 1300m(iirc), with a salvo of 3 torps. Shortly after firing them another ship had the audacity to loom into view in the line of fire of the shots I just made. Two of the torps hit the ship that loomed into view and sunk her, third torp never hit anything. Well, ended up it was almost as good as a Rodney, it was a Revenge Class Warship! I don't know how long it'll be before I get that lucky again. :hmm: In the end I got 32,000t of Warship and 34,000t of Merchants!

Anyway, glad to see you've finally lived to go out to sea for a third patrol AVGWarhawk. Good hunting to ya!

Cheers
