I hope you get the chance, and if you do, we need pictures! :D :DL

In GWX you can run into a hospital ship almost everywhere.
One question: Wasn't she lit up? And if yes , why on earth did you shoot at her?

Worst visibility ever, only saw her bow, when the torpedoes were 10 secs before impact, I saw the lights on the flag :damn:

Every convoy attack or decent target is ruined by visibility.
The only time I had a good attack was on the Illustrious, but that campaign crashed so...

And I always want to start in 39' since I feel anything later than will make me miss a big part of the war somehow.

re: R Hessler & U-111
 

Thanks for checking in. Hopefully RL will calm down soon so you can get back to the Atlantic! See you soon and cheers! :salute:

Best of luck.
Why don't you use SH3 commander?
It is a stand alone programm that let's you modify many things on SH3 plus you can get reports like this:

You can find it at the download section of Subsim.

Get this as well for the ship names:

Don't forget to download the additional files that will make it fully
compatible with GWX.

Gut Jadg!

Doesn't work, I don't know why, had some help from this forum but it didn't do the trick.

I tried all available options, different location, compatibility and administrator rights.

A bad day for the RN
A day of triumph for the Fatherland!

A job well done!:salute:

Afgaristo :salute:

1 thing I learned from this... Persistence.
If you think you can't intercept it, try it anyway.

Well done indeed! :salute:

Weird that in the patrol after, the escaping from the destroyers was much more fun than sinking the Hood.:shifty:

Good work.
Successful evasions should always be satisfying.
