Last night did not really have time to run a normal patrol, get one started, but
wanted to test a special mission I've added to the campaign for V2.0, landing Army Scouts on Attu ahead of the main invasion forces. Figured it'd be pretty simple, come back to port.
Well, after picking up the scouts, dropping them on schedule at Attu, 11 May 0100, went west for a quick trip to Northern Kurils, see if could find a ship to sink, perhaps bombard Matsuwa or Paramushiru with Nautilus's six inch deck guns. I stumbled across a convoy, still heading east, possibly unaware of the mornings invasion. Next day, found another heading west, likely already at sea when invasion occurred. Turned into a busy, action packed, frustrating patrol in
which all twenty torpedoes were fired within 150 NM of Attu, never made it to the Kurils, had to turn home since all torpedoes expended and batteries were damaged, would not recharge beyond 80 percent of so.
This short test turned into several hours game time lol
