New question:

Look around you now...take note of the objects within arm's reach...

...now, describe how you would use one of those objects in a torpedo attack on a freighter.

Best 5 stories in the next 10 posts will win a code.

I would use this computer in front of me to look up a manual TDC tutorial on Subsim.com

I have a jar full of spare change on my desk (where my pc is at).
I would surface at night, load the deck gun with a blank, stuff the barrel full off coins and aim it at the freighter and shoot the cannon and immediately dive to periscope depth. The deck would be full of coins and the crew of the freighter would scramble to take as many coins as they can since war pay is not making any one rich, thus leaving their posts. This would give me the opportunity to get in position and fire an eel.

Now the fantasy part in my brain hurts...
