Congratulations, sailor! Of course you know that one of the military's favorite sayings is "Do the crappy jobs well, and you will be rewarded...with more crappy jobs!":rotfl:

I would have snapped pictures and then sunk it once mission complete

I guess I should have added that it was at the end of a long patrol. Four missions all told.

I had exhausted my supply of munitions (zero torpedoes and precious few rounds of deck gun ammo).

Otherwise Yea I woulda fired a few off at her.

Now there's a brave captain. To do this with no real amount of munitions.

i bet mine was easier, in V1.1, i was docked at the Phillipenes, and my target was to Photo op the 'carrier fleet' in the Phillipenes, by manilia, (it was just a seaplane tender and a tiny carrier without a tower structure, so i just left the dock, and took some pictures, before sinking them both!

Mine was even easier.

Completed my first patrol (the starting base at Manilla was subsequently lost, so I had to dock at Suribya).

My next mission was to photgraph enemy shipping in Suribya - my new home base!

So, I just raised the periscope and photographed a US freighter at the next jetty - mission completed.

Next message - congratulations, we are rolling out new subs, do you want to take command of one?
