Unfortunate outcome, Lionfish. You should have been able to sink a single oiler.

I DID SINK THE RUST BUCKET >:(

Maybe you didnt sinnk it fast enough?

Possible....im british....was having a cup of tea during Battle.

Just a guess as I just got the game today... but didn't the orders include a restriction to avoid warships if possible? You sank K22 and then K21 before attacking the tanker... were these by any chance warships?

It's possible to sink both those corvettes first too .

This , and a few others do have some time restriction .

Just find your own style , it varies where ships are positioned at start , sometimes easier to sink 1 or both Corvettes .

If you hit the Oiler , whatever or however you do it , you need only survive a minute longer to win .

I think I have knocked a plane down too on this - afterwards !

Yessum. This mission is timed - my guess is, using random times for examples, you had 20 mins to complete the mission and you sunk it at 19:30.
