If each major WWII Navy (USA, Italy, Japan, Germany, UK) was to have been given 1 golden BB (a bomb/shell/torpedo right into a magazine causing a fatal explosion) on top of already lucky shots where do you think each would elect to use it. Here are my guesses:

Japan: A bomb right into a magazine on USS Yorktown at the Battle of the Coral Sea?

UK: A shell from HMS Hood right into the main magazine of Bismark?

USA: Finish off Shōkaku at Coral Sea?

Italy: A fatal hit on HMS Indomitable during Operation Pedestal?

Germany: A lucky torpedo on HMS Ark Royal during the Hunt for the Bismark?
