The only bummer is there was no damage model for this sub. So, although it went down, it had no hole in the side of it.

Way to go, Dogfish!

I've yet to send one of those buggers to the bottom, but that's most likely because Trevally keeps updating OHII, forcing me to start over again because, well... OK

Hello, my name is Misha and I'm a Mod Addict... :DL

Did the Brit sub see you and fire on you?

Danke Misha, but they made it easy! By the way, I'm a Mod addict as well.

See me, yes. I know this because even though I made sure to fire a T2 Electric (daytime shot) at the last moment they started to zag, not in time though, the fish was already knocking at their door. I don't know if they saw me or the fish but the turn was sudden (I play with map icon's on).
I got one of these a couple campaigns ago. They cannot fire at you unless there is a mod that will allow it. I think that one of the super mods makes AI subs fire torpedos or allows torpedos in general. If you find it mail me, I'd love to enable that.

Uhhhhhh... Jeez, did the goose just run over my grave. I play with IRAI !!
That Sub coulda' knocked me into next year!! :har:
Thanks Trevally, now I know that little tidbit of information they'll likely start clobbering me:O:
Maybe I should peruse that "read me" file for IRAI one more time...yeah, I think so.

Hi Misha

I have managed to sink a Sub but it does not come up on the Capt report and you can not even report it.

Its a pity you can not write a message to BTU in person and get a reply.

Hi Hector,
Yes, the first time I got a Brit Sub I didn't get credit except in the tonnage (?)
This time, I was credited with the sinking in tonnage plus it showed up in the Captain's report (which technically I'm not supposed to bother with all that much because of the new UI). It also showed up in the Ships Journal, description and all.
The only thing I was not credited for was warship's sunk. That number stayed the same.

Ahh, the wonderful goose...In the states we have a saying for that feeling you have when you might have skirted death, or something has happened that gives you that funny mortal feeling, that is the "goose that runs over your grave".
Anyway, this Goose as it turns out has teeth. Now I'm tempted to keep that game save as a AI sub test, to see how this sub reacts to various Stimuli:know:
