I was in the middle of a minefield and just hadn't hit anything the first time?

I was hit hard for about 1,5 hours with over six DD's around. I eventually had to blow ballast and surrender (thanks to SH3Commander). I ofcourse was blown to bits first hehe.

I learned my lesson

And yes, you hit a mine.
