This is realy a laughter through tears but now I know **** realy happens sometimes :haha:

After one hard patrol my friend just got his career abandoned because as he says he most probably hit the harbor wall on Ahead Full and on TCx8 :nope: The game window was minimized at that time so he couldn't know what happened. The next moment he restored the window it was already too late to change anything.. :shifty:

What a waste!
Is it possible at all to sink yourself like that ? :)

after running out of torpedo's in a type two i decided to try and finish the revenge battleship by ramming her.
that bit went ok until it rolled onto my boat and took me under too ;)
ramming can absolutely mean death lol

Harbour walls don't have damage zones, so can't be damaged or destroyed.

I hope the Great Balz will only have victorious encounters with harbour walls.

I did it on my first ever patrol, I was plotting a course out of the harbour, I didn't zoom in far enough for the piers etc to appear and plotted a course right through one, I ended up with a sunken bullnosed type II. I'd played SH4 before this and the dock details appear at a lesser zoom as I recall. Needless to say I'm more careful now.
