Sadly almost none. I shot from 450m in the rain and as soon as the third torpedo had left the tubes I turned into the task force and dropped to 100m deep and 1kt with Silent Running, so.. pretty hard to detect. One of the destroyers did a circle of the Nelson as she sunk, but then they all went along their path.

Nice and foggy. Surely it is not safe to have a uboat ride the giant waves like this.

Didn't make it.
My own fault, attacking in 140 meters of water, in perfect weather conditions.
Then sticking around at PD long enough to reload tubes and have another go.
By the time of my second attack they were pretty much on top of me.
Kept me down for about an hour and a half, dropped over a hundred depth charges, then 4 of their buddies turned up to join the party.
Didn't last much longer after that.
Like I said, my own fault. Just one bad decision after another.

Can't resist to stick around to watch her sink, eh?

Just played a little bit with my own mod for the first time: heavy seas, targeting a Liberty with my last 2 torpedoes; scored a hit on the most forward hold and between hold 2 and 3. Took a while, but eventually she went down, slooowly.

Sent a shiver down my spine when she finally slipped out of view completely.

Very satisfying.
