Played the Bismark mission last night, I managed to sink Rodney, but, somthing very strange happened.
At the start of the game I found myself in the perfect position for attack Rodney was just 300mts away, and still firing on Bismark, I quickly let one fish go, impact was right under the main armament. Due to my unfamiliarity with the controls by the time I let fish 2 and 3 go Rodney had passed by, still both detonated, she came to a stop with a list to starboard of I estimate around 20 degrees. In the meantime a cruiser was passing behind me I fired my stern tube, impact in the stern of the cruiser, she went down in under a minute leaving an oil slick. I had a destroyer come after me as I fired 2 more torps at the stricken Rodney but the angles was bad and they just skidded off the hull. Now for the weird part, as I came around to fire on her with my stern tube, my conning tower was exposed in the heavy swell, she fired on me with her 16" guns !!!! I say this was impossible given the damage and the list, I fired my stern tube, the fish hitting her around the main armament, she helled over, capsizing and started to sink.
