The Luftwaffe saved my ass! We sunk the HMS Nelson

[Flamingboat]

Amazing! I attacked the HMS Nelson in a convoy. 1942 or something I think. It was a single mission. I hit it in the side with 2 Type II torpedos impact at 5 meters. It listed for about an hour and a half while I got hunted for what seemed like forever. THEN out of nowhere JU-87s came with BE-110s and attacked the HMS Nelson! They dropped their bombs where my torpedos hit! THEN after they sunk her they came and gave me close air support and bombed the **** out of 3 tin cans that had been hunting me. I surfaced to help with the tin cans and rescue some downed pilots :smug: My periscope was out.

I've never seen the Luftwaffe kick so much ass!

You are lucky :o
I never see the Luftwaffe after 1941

Lazy b**tards

Meh.

You scripted it so what's your problem?
I'd think you'd run with them.

What does it take to call out the Luftwaffe? How far do you have to be from home base before they even show up?
I've send out a thousand contact reports before, but I never saw them!

I've never seen the Fat pigs ever and why? There to busy sniffing leather and stuffing there faces full of drugs given to them by the big fat man himself old HG. Bunch of toss pots who are a wast of space, if Himmler and the SS had all shot I shall be happy. :x http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/images/icons/icon8.gif

Don't be too generous with words against the Luftwaffe, we all fight for the same cause.

The Army and Waffen SS along with us in the Navy, yes.

But those stinking jackass fly boys monkey butt suckers, NEVER.

I was doing a single missions near Malta. I was supposed to be taking down cargo. Well there is the HMS Nelson about 4 or 5 thousand meter away. Well I was deciding what to do and the Nelson and other boats started firing on someone on the other side of the convoy. I jumped into the fight right away because I didn't want them to fire on other Uboats or German aircraft while I twiddled my thumbs. I fired a 4 torp salvo at the Nelson. 3 Hits, one dud 2 detonations. Then as I said earlier an hour and a hald later the cavalry just shows up.

Aah so basically what you need is:

- Lots of patience
- Close to occupied countries (Malta = close to Italy)
- A battleship or a convoy (won't go for single merchants?)

But does it matter wether you send out a contact report or not?

I didn't send one if that helps. It is the Malta single mission. I am playing it again to see if it happens again or I was lucky. The planes didn't care about the cargo ships. The cargo ships had hauled ass anyway when the Nelson started to get beat on. I would have too.

Don't panic unless your a monkey butt sucker fly boy kissing Herman's big fat ass. :lol:

The fuzz-boots never helped me. :shifty:

[antikristuseke]

Good to hear that those flyboys took time out of their busy schedule of drinking and womanizing to lend a fellow kaleun a hand. So far I have come across them once in action, a few Stukas went after a lone small merchant I had reported a few hours earlyer.

[Char]

Yeah its pretty rare to see those Butt Pirates,but when you do boy do they mop up!

[Hartmann]

Did you get some renown for sunk the battleship ??

I saw the luftwaffe in the med near of malta.

i was waiting in fire position for a two cargo ships and two scorts when a FW-condor appears and dropped some bombs to one cargo ship,

then after some time arrives a group of stukas that sunk the damaged cargo ship and damaged other,
it continues until the last ship of the convoy was sunk, included the two scorts.

i don´t sunk any ship , but was too cool see the action, with the scorts firing at will to the bombers and making evasive maneuvers.


in 1942 -1943 and later , the luftwaffe was too busy in the russian front and defending germany from the american and british bombers, if not, it could be deployed in the atlantic bases and defend the u boats from the ASW patrols

[Kipparikalle]

Note that most of the luftwaffe was moved to Eastern front due to the preraration of zergrushing the ruskies.

That explains why you see rarely the flyboys after 41

I got no credit at all. I didn't technically sink it. I really just made it a non moving target for the planes.

[deamyont]

The Luftwaffe can suprise sometimes. Once I tried raiding Liverpool, only to be supprised that there were nothing left to sink when I got there! Ships burning in the harbour, sky full of JU-88's. :cool:
