I was just having fun with the pics. :lol:

Actually I saved the sim just prior to the Island where I was to meet the DD Escort. But since I had screwed up before I left on my patrol by saveing sim in the river ( thats a no-no in Rubini's Harbour Traffic 1.45 mod ;) ) the returning DD would never show up so I chickened out ( knowing the mines were all over the place :damn: ) and requested a tow. :P :lol:

Cool! :rotfl:

I've never seen any mines, and didn't think they were even modelled as visual, tangible objects.

I have never waited for an escort since the World mod. I always plow ahead full both in and out of ports. Guess I've been lucky.. :hmm:

Elder-Pirate was just trying to draw some neutrals into the war against the Third Reich...

I can't see any neutral ships sunk, only allies. Or am I missing something?

The picture only says 5 allied ships are sunk, it was probably a misread. :up:

5 Allied ships sunk was right for I was on my way back from patrol and had sunk those brits up around the BE Quadrant.

There were no neutral ships involved this time.................well at least BdU will think so and my crew are sworn to it. ;)
