i remember my first BB i was sailing home with 1 bow and 2 stern fish remaining.
i was passing west of ireland and i got a contact report of a warship heading straight for me, i dive to pd and wait for it/them to come. eventually they came and in the convoy was the HMS rodney. i miss calculted the distance i would be from the rodney by the time she reached my position though, so as the rodney was passing my bow it was 3000 away. i thought sod it and fired my last bow fish. all hell broke loose and all the dds in the convoy came hunting me. i dive down to 230m silent running and make an escape.
about 5mins later i get "torpedo impact" wtf??!! it hit the rodney at that distance!! after about 3 hours the dds leave and head away i stay under for another hour and then come to pd depth. looking around i see a sillhouette of a ship (weather real bad) i lockon and against all odds its the rodney, speed 0knts!!
i must have hit her screws or engine room as she was listing rather badly. i come about and fire my last 2 stern fish itnto each ammo bunker and under she went. i feel i was really really lucky to stop her with one fish at that range.
