So who's idea was it to build such powerful ships to shoot up merchant ships? A quote from Hitler"on land I'm a hero,on water I'm a coward"or something like that.Lucky hit on the HOOD uhhn.The Bismarck had found the "range" and would have poked holes through the HOOD even if it had'nt had that "lucky" hit. Did not the Prinz Eguen already hit one ship before the Bismarck even engaged the HOOD?Which brings back my question,why such an enormous ship/ships to shoot up merchant vessels? It sees to me,either commit to take on capital ships or let the Uboats do the merchants in.But like ya'll said it would'nt matter,since we had broken their code and they did'nt know it.I'm just a novice so take it easy on me! framert [img]tongue.gif[/img]
