Default I Found Nagumo!

I took command of USS Silversides and left Pearl on June 3rd, RACING northwest to Midway


i thought i missed the fight, but then a Val came out of the northwest

i followed it back....

and came upon NAGUMO

i was SHOCKED



i will provide proof this is campaign and not the Midway Mission

i put 2 fish into her, magnetic MK10s

u can switch torps

and yes im on the surface, in a rainstorm

i ran into a Fuso at the end of a patrol, with no torps :rotfl:

then i ran into a Kongo, but i couldnt get a good setup on her

much improvement in naval activity over SH3

especially in that weather, i also am reminded how easy it is to mistake a cruiser for a battleship and a light cruiser for a heavy, as i first thought the CL was a BB, then a CA :rotfl:
