Once you actually make it in the harbor, you'll find you're like a kid in a candy store with free run of the place. (unless they changed it in GWX...last time I did it was TGW 1.1a)

[Dowly]

Owned the game from the release and have never visited New York. :smug:

[Deep-Six]

Along the way, I have now sunk a lightship and a armed trawler.

anything else that gets in my way will be sunk also.

it clearly says

Surface for a while get some air, and cut the amount of posts per day and per Thread, you really make it hard for other to follow it.

nothing offensive but there are others that are willing to say, and if you wanna chat, use MSN in place of forums.

Cut to a historian.

SUPERIMPOSED CAPTION: 'A HISTORIAN'
Historian Another great Viking victory was at the Green Midget cafe at Bromley. Once again the Viking strategy was the same. They sailed from these fiords here, (indicating a map with arrows on it) assembled at Trondheim and waited for the strong north-easterly winds to blow their oaken galleys to England whence they sailed on May 23rd. Once in Bromley they assembled in the Green Midget cafe and spam selecting a spam particular spam item from the spam menu would spam, spam, spam, spam, spam ...
The backdrop behind him rises to reveal the cafe again, The Vikings start singing again and the historian conducts them

Vikings (singing) Spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, lovely spam, wonderful spam. Lovely spam wonderful spam ...
Mr and Mrs Bun rise slowly in the air

Not my fault you ask Sailor Steve, every time someone mentions spam it has to be posted.

[Sailor Steve]

Do me a favor, Steed; while I have my ears plugged, tell yourself the Killing Joke.:dead: :rotfl:

[leeclose]

Some people just dont quit get Python do they steed:yep:

[Sailor Steve]

Yeah I do; I just never make a secret of the fact that I got tired of hearing people repeat entire sketches more than 20 years ago. They're never as funny as the originals, or as they think they are.

[STEED]

I heard that one many times. ;)

Where the hell is my spam eggs and chips with a pot of coffee?

Who sailing in to New York better hurry up with my order.

[Deep-Six]

I am sailing into NY. Your orders will be filled when I sink at least at least 4 liners.

I will post pics of them sinking.:yep:

[Deep-Six]

Here is my first victim.:D An ARMED TRAMP STEAMER.:o

http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t170/Lyrkiller/ArnedTrampsteamer.jpg

This is too early for armed merchants. I am only in December of '41.:o

[Hakahura]

Head for the Statue, there should be a nice juicy Passenger Liner moored in front of it.

Just to look and take pictures.

You would'nt shoot it would you?

[bigboywooly]

This is too early for armed merchants. I am only in December of '41.:o


Some merchants were armed as soon as war broke out

F.d.U./B.d.U.'S War Log
16 - 31 October 1939


Actions are therefore said to have been fought between steamers and U-boats. Both steamers got away and in both cases the U-boat is said to have been destroyed at least one of them on the surface.



As experience in the world war showed, losses on the surface are usually due to:

1)The risks which the boat runs when waging war in accordance with prize law.

2)The risks which the boat runs in a gun action with an armed merchant vessel. One hit may render the boat incapable of diving and therefore the certain prey of destroyers. (It is not surprising that circumstances are different from those in the world war. At that time steamers were only gradually being armed; today all this has apparently been carefully planned and the effect of this form of defense must therefore be expected to be greater).

3)A surprise encounter with the enemy, especially in poor visibility. (This danger has risen considerably since the world war, because of a/c).

[Jimbuna]

If your using Image Shack click on the 'resize omage' function. :arrgh!:

[AVGWarhawk]

If your using Image Shack click on the 'resize omage' function. :arrgh!:

Yes, image shack. Makes all kinds of sizes for what you have. I learned the hard way when I posted some whacked out super sized picture:oops: .


Anyway, I sailed once to NY, got sunk and never made the harbor.....

[leeclose]

cheers guys ive been messing about with photobucket and it does the trick as well thanks for the advice:up:

[Deep-Six]

I am new to photobucket, but I now when I upload pics the size will be 800X600.

I do apologize to you Hawk.

Thank you Lee for resizing the my pics for me.:up: :D

Now for some bad news, I lost everything on that patrol. That sucked.:down:

My estimated tonnage was going to be around 60000+ tons.

NP, I got bit when I posted some super sized pics:o . How did you lose everything????

[Deep-Six]

Hawk, I have no idea. Went to load up the game and picked Willie Anz and saved games and NOTHING showed up.:hmm: I then checked sh3commander and no profiles were in there.:o And I had three of them. Went to where the My documents and the saved games are and nothing was there. Damn all to hell!!! I was very close to chucking my computer into our lake in back. (I didnot though).:D I do keep my system in good condition. Just puzzling.:hmm:

[AVGWarhawk]

Oh, Lord. You probably did what I did once. When you click save game, usually a screen shows up and says "game saved successfully". Well, sometimes this bugger shows up and says "game not saved". The box looks exactly the same except the words. Being the hurry up guy I am I click the OK button without reading and all is lost. I suspect this is what happened to you also. Ah, that sucks bad:down:

[Deep-Six]

I am going to take an IXD2 to New York and see if I get any better results.:D
