Here's another one that you may already know about:
Patrolling in Davao Strait on 4/11/44 (16:37 Base Time) at approximately 126-0E, 05-58N, Balao encountered a large group of troop ships headed by a Hatsuharu class Destroyer and trailed by two other escorts. The Hatsuharu destroyer was all black, except for highlighted turrets.

Probably not the game's fault, but the Hatsuharu made a run at me that I evaded with minor damage, and since I was at periscope depth and he was now behind me, we prepared to fire a stern torpedo as he reached effective range (about 400 yards). As I raised the scope the game crashed, freezing my whole system. I had to reboot.

It could have been a hundred different reasons, but it was the first time a game crash has taken down the whole system. I was able to reload a previous saved game, find the same convoy (Hatsuharu still had that black skin, and this time took it out with a down the throat shot at 600 yards. No crash. No freeze. Probably something in my system or environment.

Anyway, this post is just in case you hadn't see this skin before.
