I fired a salvo and scored a couple of hits, well done, went deep to re load, had a few scary moments with some escorts. Came up for another go and fired at a troop ship, and then it happened, the technological breakthrough of the century, a circular running torpedo!!!

I remembered that there was some advise the Germans had re their pattern runners to dive after firing to ovoid embarrassment and tears so I dived, then to my surprise one of the Jap destroyers came in to dump some cans on me, but, ah.........he didnt figure on my circular running torp which blew him to kingdom come!

yea i did that yesterday, i had to crash dive... and then a big boom, was worried for a second, but when i went to external cam... BOOM poor DD...
