One of these got split off from my force in a chaotic night battle by a hit to the engine room: Two of these moved in to close range: Naturally I immediately put my own force on flank speed to try to rescue my vulnerable ship. However by the time I got there, it was too late... The enemy had already run away!

And that is how a 2600 ton cruiser sinks a 14200 ton battleship. When you are asking yourself "Can I really afford to spend 60 tons on submerged torpedoes?" you should be asking yourself "Can I really afford to build a cruiser without torpedoes?" Interesting thing about this battle is that the battleship was built in 1899 and the cruiser was built in 1903 but the battle was fought in 1915 and neither of them had refits beyond fire control.
