Default MSC Napoli, torpedoed??!!

They told us they had planted explosives to break her up, but to me it looks like a lost U-Boat captain has found a target in the English Channel over 60 years since the end of the war!

He must have had a big fuel supply to maintain a 60 year patrol.

he might have to surface and use the deck gun to finish her off as she hasn't sunk yet it seems.

Looks like our lost U-Boat Captain made another attempt to sink the Napoli today. I'm suprised the Royal Navy aren't hunting him down. Hopefully he'll sink the damn ship eventually!

Now that I look at it again, that smoke's all wrong. Needs a "Better Smoke" mod.
