On the way to my assigned patrol grid AM 11 on my 5th patrol using GWX I ran across a sub contact east of Lerwick Sub Base ... Great ! I thought I would get to get a sub kill but found instead one of my fellow Kaptains hanging out at 75 meters waiting ........ the pics speak more words than I can type so .......

In the next pic I smiled a bit and decided to give that crew a wake up call :lol:

Ever so slowly I let myself sink ... was expecting a dull thud when my bow touched theirs but wearing headphones that loud shreek of metal scraping against each other I threw my headphones off :lol: ... I can only imagine the startled frantic screams I caused on the other boat :rotfl:

During the contact report on my navigation screen it looked like it had only traveled maybe 50 km in all .... when I woke them up they didn't move .. so I left them and went about my business .......... my DEL button didn't work to get rid of the heads up display ....

I've never played a full mission as yet and I've had the game since it came out, all I've ever done is mod. But seeing stuff like this I can't wait till there is nothing left do do but play. Thats a really good find ! thanks for sharing it.

BDU should be shot for not informing you of another wolf in your area of operations.....then again you might have encroached into his area of operation:rotfl:no thats not funny sorry:shifty:

either way bloody excellent ! :rock:

You want to be careful with the net cutter on that VIIB of yours, you could have opened him like a tin can with that thing!
