There are some minefields round the heligoland area. I got caught with that once aswel. As for the cat on board, bad omen, and a female on board, even worse!!!! Good reading :)

Last fish Last big kill

I'm ending my 25th patrol. It's mid Dec 43. I plan to back in port for Christmas.
I have but one fish left in a forward tube. What do you know.... Radio contact large convoy just west of me heading for me. Part of me says...You have one torpedo, this is going to be a well escorted convoy. Do you want the risk or just sail on and find a solo strageler to sink on the way to port.... Or do you risk it? They gave me torpedoes to use on enemy shipping... I turn west and tell my crew we are going in! My sound man tells me of 7 escorts and a warship in the middle of the convoy? What could be in the middle? I proceed with caution. When in position I raise my scope ever so little and there it is... A Bogue class escort carrier! Ah the frustration... Only one torpedo. Must make it count. Target for hull impact at 6m depth just behind the bow area.. Fish away now crash dive! We're going to have LOTS of company in a few minutes. My reward? "She's going down!" Yes one fish the last fish bags me a 15k ton escort carrier and I slink off out of the midst of the convoy to head home victorious... Radian |

Just after finishing a 40000t patrol with wild forays into CG9x and the Portuguese coast, I tried to reload to discover that the entire save is apparently corrupt since it keeps crashing on my loading attempts.
Oh well, now for another campaign... |

I found the solution to the other puzzle, too: damage without enemy action. Ahem, if we had proper nautical charts on board, I'd have seen at first glance that the Celtic Sea is only between 50 and 100m deep in many places. I guess we probably hit the sea bottom :oops: Helmut |
Still working on manual attacks. I almost hit a ship on this patrol!
because I was submerged and running flank. damn schooners. |

Admiral Scheer, Septemper 3rd, 1939. We left Wilhelmshaven at midnight on the first and are currently heading towards the entrance of St George's Channel to conduct raids on British shipping. We spotted a tramp steamer on the 2nd but it was Norwegian and didn't attack though Bernard thought we should. Will update if anything happens.
Admiral Scheer, Septemper 4th, 1939. Sunk a small Polish freighter in grid AN 47. We are continuing towards the entrance of St George's Channel and will continue to update as events require. |

Strange CTD's
My last couple of patrols have been marred by a strange sort of CTD's. Every time a homing torpedo hits a Flower class the game CTD's. On the last occasions I have saved just before impact, started anew after the CTD - the same happens every time. It does not happen when other vessel types are hit or other torpedo types are used on the Flower class. Correction - now it CTD's with all torps hitting a Flower corvette. |
