Good, I see you got the hang of it.

And I see you got in some target practice on that poor Mogami as well.

Example of what you can do with GIMP: first is original (though scaled down), second with "softglow" which really brings out the explosion and splash against dark background, third "oilified" (like oil-painting);

First ship other than a merchant or destroyer SUNKEN

I engaged a large task force, shot down 3 destroyers but both my perascopes were destroyed. So i took the risk. Came back to surface, aimed and shot all the front torpies, emergency dived... and BOOM. A Kongo-Class Battleship sunk

It really was sailing in the direction the wake is showing. No editing was involved...
I know the Japanese did see a retreat as a dishonorable thing, so maybe this was the CO's way of avoiding the disgrace :hmm:
