Surcouf

[ryanglavin]

I just realized, what if you found the Surcouf in game? Just imagine bigger it would be then your ship XD

[Kapitanleutnant]

Lots of things are bigger than a U-boat.

The Bismarck.

The Eiffel Tower.

Ten elephants.

The Moon.

....oh I get it you were doing a thing. How cute.

I'm just pointing out, that if I saw that beast In game, i would do a crash dive down to 200 meters... have you seen the guns on that thing?

Yeah, they are 8' and not in the game.... I'll worry more about the 15' ones that ARE in game.

Well that sub was around till 1942, so it "should be" in Silent Hunter 5. That would be a perfect modd!

I might be getting my facts wrong, but didn't the Surcouf escort convoys solo in 1939-1940?
