I guess SH3 + GWX2 is pretty realistic

It is late 1943 and life sucks.

31st patrol of the U-52 (VIIc) and all I seem to do is surface, detect radar, dive, repair damage from the aircraft. Rinse and repeat.:cry:

I am making an average of about 5 knots to my patrol area where I fear there will be no contacts.

Then we have the joyous 5 knot trip back to port. Surface, charge quickly, detect radar, dive, repair.

Why do I even have torpedoes onboard when BDU keeps sending me straight through where the British seem to 24/7 air cover.

If I am lucky all I have to look forward to is a convoy with overwhelming escort coverage.

We will continue to do our duty, even though we feel that our noble cause is lost.

(how am I going to survive another year and a half?)

1943?

Your a ghost, you should be dead by now. Over 30,000 German submariners died in WWII.

Nah. You're expendable my friend and your only purpose is to provide target practice for the next generation of RAF bomb aimers :D

See...I made a sale and stopped a sail.

'43 ain't so bad.

By the end of 1943, into 1944 the smart thing to do is.

1. Attach a white flag to your snorkel.

2. Have your life insurance papers in a flotable canister.

3. Continue your game of poker, as there`s nothing else to do, except hold your breath, and sit the war out on the bottom.:D

1943 is when things start to go down hill for the U-boats, 1944 is the death nell!:dead:

Whait till you reach 1945 and then you will see what it means for life to suck

Seems like what we're all doing late in the war. The lucky ones survive to tell the tale.

If you're doing 5KTS you're doing well. I usually do about 2-3KTS :yep:

Why do I even have torpedoes onboard when BDU keeps sending me straight through where the British seem to 24/7 air cover.
The Allies have fully saturated air cover almost everywhere, so no matter where BDU sends you you will be discovered, attacked and face death in the eyes :yep:

Brag wrote a book??? How come we have not heard about this before??
:lol:
