I've already gotten to sink the Queen Mary in campaign mode with SH3 Commander.
Always takes 1 torp, though...
I've never even seen them from far :( The only passenger liner that crossed once my way was in a convoy and worth about 10000 tons :yep:
But except of that nothing else...
I use GWX. Where do I have a chance to find one? OK I'm sure Liverpool harbour would be fine, but I prefer to go in AND out alive :D

Honestly, I have no idea.
I caught her running through the Irish Sea. Fired a salvo of 3 torpedoes into her hull (all were steam powered).
Took 1 to kill her, then the other two hit. Clean kill, no explosions or the like. Took a heavy list to starboard until the sea spilled over the forward deck. Went down by the bow in about 30 minutes total. No lifeboats or survivors found.
If you're looking for an ocean liner, try to go in a dock like:
(gb)
Southend (try !!)
Dover
(africa)
Freetown
(france-early war)
Dunkerque \ Calais
(us-late war)
New York
For others big ship:
(gb)
Scapa Flow
Lock Ewe
(us)
New York
(malta)
Valletta
:hmm:
or in the legendar Gibraltar.. but if do you like to survive..
don't try this at home:down: :rotfl:

YES! That's a way to start the day.... :)
Nice ships (actually, not nice ships, great ships!) but one suggestion: according to Wikipedia, the two ships should have been painted camouflage gray durring the war while they were doing troop transport runs. But I can't say I don't like them as they are now tho':arrgh!:

I just scored a Cunard last night in the med (East of Gibraltar). She had 3 escorts, and was tailed by a LST. Got em both. Sweet tonnage. It's my third Cunard of the career. I find the med is lousy with 'em.

Have you gotten the Aquitania yet? She always manages to dodge me...
Someday, you bastard... someday...
