Departure:St. Naz. on 01OCT40, assigned to weather station at grid DH54. 1st war patrol.

04OCT40 2140 hrs 2 WO's crew spot a steamer, 4500 meters to our NE. Moonless night and the ship is running without lights. Proceeded ahead of target and readied for a night surface torpedo attack. Tube 1 was selected for impact pistol. Our gun was made available in case of a miss or we needed to take out the bridge to prevent radio broadcasts. We get to a range of under 1800 meters without being spotted, our attack solution looked good so I ordered "Eins los"

We aimed for under the bridge, but must have mistaken the range a little since our eel struck aft of the forecastle. Her heck jumped a meter up and crashed back into the water. I could see orange glow of flames that were starting in the stern holds. I order the gun to be fired at the bridge. Moments later the bark of our deck gun followed the gout of flames from the barrel. First shell hit the deck just fore of the bridge, causing a brilliant flash in the darkened sky. Ranges were shouted out and what seemed like minutes went by before the next loud report of our cannon. This one was dead on and caused the bridge to become a smoking wreck.

Ship sunk, steamer of unknown registry, approximately 3800 gt, CG16.

dude BUMMER!

now you coulda attacked on the surface, but I dont exactly recomend that one, or been über advanced and make the fireing solution yourself. (I have only sunk one ship that way, and it was using a homing torpedo)! lol

So im at my moms work and find out my power is out. No internet tonight, but I will have my laptop so its time for SH3 lol.

eschemschnuz · 11-09-11, 06:45 PM

Dear Onkel Karl,

I see we've lost 3 of our bases in France. Please be blunt: we're losing, aren't we?

The Scapa Flow crossing remains treacherous; took an EXTRA extra long route just to be safe.
Managed to get rid of one VW that was on my tail, but the bees leave me no peace. Finally reached the BE grid after 11 days.

I can again confirm from this patrol that once past the Bay of Biscay longitude, the Atlantic is relatively calm.
Probably all stuck in Paris, I'm guessing.

Rounded things off with a big fat T2 and a C3 sailing side by side.

Realism @ 70%, original game specs.

On 12OCT40 @ 1759 hrs, my turn on watch, ship spotted, B-304, C-SW at about 10 knots. It being dusk, surface attack was out of the question. We set up a 90 degree angled submerged attack with tubes 2 & 4. We were able to get within 2000 meters when I order the launch at a 10 second interval. Eel # 4 hit 2:25 minutes later, impact pistol 6 meter depth right under the stacks. Order a surface gun attack, when we found that Eel #2 probably missed.

Surfaced in a minute and one round from the deck gun from 1200 meters scoring on the bridge. She listed bad to port. Got back heading east bound since we were ordered to monitor the entrance to the straight of Gibraltar.
English flagged 3100 GRT, cargo.

Dear Onkel Karl,

Please accept my humblest apologies for nearly totaling the '42.

However, in my defence, it's not like anyone was ever going to use U-923.
So I thought: what's the harm in one quick joyride with just over forty of my closest mates before consigning her to the scrap-heap?
Next thing I knew, damn bees nearly blew her bow off.

I understand that downing 5 Sunderlands do not make up for risking a complete write-off. Nevertheless, I am eternally grateful to you for filing this incident under "Patrol 28".
And for allowing me to keep the Type 7C/42. She is a thing of beauty.
I've been told she'll be good as new come February. Allow me to make a solemn promise - not a scratch to her from this day onward.

Realism @ 70%, original game specs.

Patrol No 4
The patrol never started.
U-101 didn't make it out of the harbor. Scopes useless(for the second patrol in a row) , diesels not responding.
The boat is cursed.
So I requested a new boat and it was accepted.
My crew and I commissioned the brand new U-104 IXB.
More to come soon.

Twice in a row? Ouch!

Right about now I think I'd be checking for black cats and broken mirrors.

good job saving the ship and your men. Like an idiot I lost like 3 men that way.

Left bergen and over in the scapa flow area encountered small convoy, nothing was left floating except I... MUHAHAHA

set sail for southern Ireland and took some damage after some DCs. (I sunk the destroyer so its ok).

Ordered to dock at Brest for Refuel, Rearm and repair.

Left Brest for Gibraltar, sunk a few lone merchant ships before the weather turned to crap. We decided to attack Casablanca. Almost sunk when a destroyer got wind of us as we were entering. She went down non the less. Armed trawler got wind of us, and suffered the same fate. Then we were homefree, as no other moving vessels were heard.

In the port we spotted 3 troop transports!

I only had 3 bow torpedos left and 3 stern left, all used and all sunk.

Left port, surfaced and put in the 2 external stern tubes I had left (no more bow).

Set sail for U-488 and encountered a huge convoy on the way, but the weather was so crappy. I lined up my shot, the ship was an ammunition ship. Last two stern tubes shot, one hit one dud.

This made the five escorts mad. Crash dove to 120 meters, and went ahead slow hard to port. After some time they lost track of me and went back for the convoy.

After two hours surfaced and set course for the milk cow, no other ships were encountered.

Docked at a milkcow in the middle of the atlantic (I think it was u-488)

Wigabee · 11-11-11, 06:34 PM

Currently U-48 is passing through the English Channel and is being pursued by a flower corvette due to being spotted by a swordfish. Morale is high and we aren't planning on going to Davey Jones' locker any time soon.

Coastal Merchant sunk with deck gun
Hawker Hurricane obliterated by AA

U-48 Out

I lined up my shot, the ship was an ammunition ship. Last two stern tubes shot, one hit one dud. This made the five escorts mad. Crash dove to 120 meters, and went ahead slow hard to port. After some time they lost track of me and went back for the convoy. After two hours surfaced and set course for the milk cow, no other ships were encountered. Docked at a milkcow in the middle of the atlantic (I think it was u-488)
