This one didnt make it onto this mornings Humorous picture thread post
but it was the best of the series and I prefer the more artistic postings
of this thread. Screenying is a good art. as for the pic itself this is
a standard VIIC41 from GWX with no tweaks whatsoever it was a test
for auto evasion use on stock subs and I got restless near the end.
there were no black swans about so I made do with the closest RN
unit I could find.

I Got your 42000 ton battlecuiser right Here!



once I was ontop I hit all stop and then hit the order to dive and dove through
as far as the keel and then stuck on that somehow I dragged hood down
under, really really Keen way to sink a ship although I was a bit nervous about
my chances of getting the sub unstuck before crush depth we made it against
all odds there is a great series of the event on humorous pics thread.

Well Bookworm you are in luck as that picture comes from a patrol that ended in the loss of U-124 in grid square AK. I got a little greedy and cocky when attacking a mid atlantic convoy. But i did get 2 hits on the HMS Rodney.
Still learn when it comes to Type IX's

I remember the commentary on TS as if it was only yesterday
(all times approx and GMT)

!400 Chris "Jim what's the best route to take to grid AK ?"
1401 Jim "Go via grid BF, travel north west into AL then easterly into AK"
1402 Chris "Cheers mate"
1423 Chris "Jim....you still there mate ?"
!424 Jim "Yeah, whats up ?"
1425 Chris "I've just found this massive convoy with 30 ships and just a few escorts...................Christ!...theres a BB in it's centre, honest mate"
1426 Jim "You lucky fecka I've never come across a convoy that big...about 26 ships is the biggest I've seen in GWX so far....I'm actually just off Halifax now and stalking a convoy of 24 ships probably headed for Liverpool"
1428 Chris "Good hunting mate"
1429 Jim "Same to you mate"
1434 Chris "That BB is the Rodney and I've just hit her in the bow"
1435 Jim "Well done, I tend to go for the boilers first so if they don't sink then at least they stop and you can finish them off when the escorts leave them"
1440 Chris "Jim, she's ploughing into the sea head first but still moving"
1441 Jim "Give her a little time and keep an eye on them escorts"
1442 Chris "Will do mate.....how you doing with your convoy mate?"
1443 Jim "Just biding my time, being patient and trying to get into a good position for a dusk attack"
1458 Chris "I'm fecking sick....I've just been sunk!!!....ah well, another career down the pan, time to start another"

Well here are a few screens from the Patrol that never was. Thought it was going to be a record breaker but did not reckon on the Save game bug biting me in the ass..

Thanks Mush, number 3 is my personal fav out of that bunch. Though have been having some Graphic card problems of late which i thought had fixed was is a bit of a pain as i cant play the game as much as i would like. Torn between getting a new card or waiting a while and buying a new computer. All depends on how much i can save and how fast. Dont you just love life.

I hope you can sort your probs pronto Chris, like your pics


This was to close for comfort, especially as we were already badly damaged by another mine Just outside Dunkirque, the lights on the surface are from an armed tug that did not like my sinking of an Auxiliary cruiser. Without his lights I would never have done it, both scopes and hydrophone gone, mines everywhere!!
