The Unofficial "Official" SH3 screenshot thread!

[Sailor Steve]

Ah. Well, that explains a lot.

[Jimbuna]

Here's two more....but strictly speaking they're not the usual screenshots as we know them.

Second and Fatal Hit on the Large Merchant (There was a small merchant behind him, I got it too.)

The above shots were taken in March 1945 game time. Note the hedgehogs in the last shot.

It's not, hence my offer above.

It is part of a private pack put together by BBW and myself containing 20+ ships (some of them yours) including Strasbourg, Leipzig, Pinguin etc.

It slotted in well with the earlier schleuse mod but appears to clash with another recently released mod (not fair to speculate publicly without further investigation) and I'm yet to look into it in any detail.

Your more than welcome to her if you want her

That's OK - I'll get it later.

Is that a Black Swan? I absolutely hate them - good for you.

Here's a dramatic yarn for you:

I was loitering off Cornwall, hoping to pick off some coastal traffic, when I got a report from BDU about large capital ships inbound. They were quite distant, but I decided to give chase. Several hours later I spotted a destroyer throught the fog ... and another ... and another! Obviously they were guarding something important.

Behind them loomed the "HMS Hood" and the "Repulse", sailing proudly in formation with some Dido class cruisers. I closed in on the surface until the Tribals got antsy - then I submerged. Two of them turned towards me and obviously knew something was up, so I didn't even get a chance to aim properly. It was "spray & pray" with a full bow salvo.

Amazingly, they were on target. "Repulse" outran the fish, "Hood" squeaked by with literally yards to spare. The light cruisers had nowhere to go and I got two strikes on one at the bow & stern - she sank within 3 minutes.

I got a pounding from the destroyers and crashed into the seabed twice, but I survived. Sadly, I didn't get credit for the kill because about an hour after my escape the universe crashed!

BTW, this took place in 1940 - if I'd sunk the "Hood", I think she would have gone down without blowing up & with rescue ships nearby, so I'd actually be doing her crew a favor!

Yes it was a Black Swan in late March 1945.

I was amazed at how fast it went down.
