Default The Bismarck is hilarious

I made a career in April 1941 just to follow around the Bismarck. I also screwed with the CFG Files (But changed it back, so it won't screw up )
So I saw it own Hood, great fight, if not lopsided. Then I followed it up to the point where it just went in circles repeatedly until sunk. That made my day. Then what didn't make my day is that i set my max speed to 35 kTS to follow the bismarck. I forgot about that, so i rammed into an enemy battleship and my U-boat literally flew out of the water and I got a career over. Great day.

Not to be off-topic, but your account of sub flying out of water reminds me of the OH Perry in DW after I rigged it to go 600 knots. In tight turns they tended to catch some serious air. Landings were a bit, eh, rough. *sink*

Okay, sorry, back to topic. Whereabouts do you find Bismarck in the first place? I have a ways to go before '41, but it sounds like watching her in battle must have been thoroughly impressive.

Ha I literally just followed her track. Do a google search on the bismarck and one of the images should be a map of its path.
