13 in a storm!

That's a lot of jumping back and forth to the radar. Rousing fun!

Default OL' Trigger an me

It's been a long time since Ive been to sea in a full fledged fleet boat,
one can usually find me slinking about in the S-47 around Alaska or Java making a nuisance of myself and having a jolly time of it.
On a whelm i decided to take on a new construction and see her through into harms way.
Several weeks and almost quits later there we were in imperial waters riding in Ol' Trigger.
Shes pretty sexy for one of those new fangled fleet boat contraptions LOL





Good hunting to all my fellow shipmates!

I was thinking to myself, "wow, 13 ships, thats unrealistic, i failed at something here."

Then i realized that:
a.) People complain the AI is too hard
b.) I've heard some complaints about the 40's being too weak..

*shrug* i give up. So, Nice work! Hope your having fun!

Hey now, your work is priceless to what you have done in makeing SH4 as realistic as possible, as fun as possible, and as interesting as can be while mantaining balance. I have great enjoyment with TMO and this sim never stops to suprise me.

TMO is still the best supermod in my book Ducimus. Very flexible, and loads of fun.

IJN Kasumi after the Battle of Mahajanga (Madagaskar). In the Night i took out one Tribal and a PT and move slowly in the Port. Sunk there 4 Freighters, then, in the first Morning Light, i detect a Fiji Light Cruiser in the Port, time to move Home.

hehe, before that I took out 3 Yamato's and a Hiyo carrier. I docked on Oct.1 to get a full load of M16's and flanked to the battle of Leyte where I sunk both. I then went to Brunei to wait for the Y to leave historically for Kure and sunk it. Several large convoys came by, but got this one in a storm, so attacked. So no refits and sunk over 250K tons in one patrol, think that's my best score with no refits.

The goal was to sink 4 Y's in one patrol, meaning every M16 had to count, but I had 2 misses. I had 4 M16's left, but didn't think that would sink another Y, plus I someone missed the last RSRD Yamato for that time, the next foray it would've come out would've been April of 45, so took out a carrier instead.

You want big action, sit about 25nms outside of Brunei in Nov of 44. I saw several nice TF and about dozen large convoys why waiting for the Yamato.

In the bright morning they came so fast and of course the outcome was so predictable.

Missed - missed - missed - missed - missed - missed...


Found! Also so predictable...

Me too!
Picture will improve though, if you press "," on numeric keyboard to hide the HUD.

@rein1705: if you insert a carriage return between the images in post #3434, it will be much easier to watch your great shots!

Do what exactly..? One with the wolfpack is done with gimp, slightly enhanced.. others lot's of traffic I added to RSRD, some single missions by me and others I've loaded over time. Course sometimes you have to TC by the minute until things work and it can take some time until you get what you're looking for. Need any help, let me know.
