Trying to hook a sub, and they accidentally hook a hulk wreck, partially sunken into the bottom by sediment? Might tear part of dragging vessel off, or maybe pull their stern under, while everyone onboard gets thrown forward by the near-sudden stop... parts of the cable winch go flying as it's destroyed? One reason you won't see it in the game is because of the games engine. There is no allowance for "attached" vehicles. You can have objects "riding" on other objects, but there is no "cable" in the game...
In the movie he is looking at the ONI recognition manual when he says the ship that's attacking them has grapplers. While I'm waiting now for copies of the original ONI manuals to arrive https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/19...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
does anybody else know if they ever listed these as part of their gear?
Nothing relative just curious.
