(Results tomorrow) :up:

Guns solve problems, the bigger the gun, the faster the problem gets solved!! Gotta be the 15 inchers! hands down :rotfl:

[jumpy]

yer, but 4x14" guns has two times the possibility for scoring a hit over 2x15" guns.... lol
either way the reasults of both will not be pretty on 0.1" - 0.2" plating
:arrgh!:

[kiwi_2005]

You have simply played to much wargames :rotfl:

[RAM]

:rotfl:

I anticipate a draw. As long as both ships fire, and at that distance, it's either a MAD scenario, or is a Recoil-induced-suborbital-ship-launch :lol:

[Damo1977]

:hmm: I am going to have to place a bet "KMS BISFARCK for a win" Like to place a bet also "for a first shot draw" :rotfl: Can I bet like this or do I have to be one way or the other

[bookworm_020]

The one who doesn't fire fire will win. The other will be doing a poor impression of a submarine, due to the force of the recoil. :o

Then again with a sea state as shown both could be on the bottom in the near future :hmm:

Can anyone create a mod to put one of the big guns on my sub? British M2 anyone!! :arrgh!:

[Elder-Pirate]

Can't wait......can't wait......can't wait :rotfl:

[Dowly]

OMG!! :o

Those are biiig guns!!! But those boats are über for not sinking with that big guns!!

So, I`ll bet a draw. They`ll both sink, because of the weight of the guns! :)

[Rhodes]

Ahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah
:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

[SmokinTep]

:rotfl: Those are some big guns on small ships.............how far will they be blown backwards?

[Takeda Shingen]

Naturally, they have to put the Statue of Liberty between them, which I am sure would just tickle the NYC tourism bureau pink.

I have to go with the Bisfark. She has speed, armor and weapons advantage. As long as she can stay at long range, she should be fine.

I can't believe that I am anayizing this.

[Syxx_Killer]

ROFL!! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

I gotta go with the Bisfark. After all, she's packin extra armor. :88) :rotfl:

[Oberon]

I wonder if Bisfarck's got a weak rudder? :hmm:

[Syxx_Killer]

You need to have a big showdown of those seafleas. About 20 on each side would be pretty funny. :rotfl:

[FAdmiral]

Some of you guys have waaaayyyyy too much time on your hands....


JIM

[BettingUrlife]

Actually, I'm starting to think those little ships are probably built just like icebergs.

[fire-fox]

News Flash Just In:

Reports of rising gun crime may be corsed be gun smuggeling ships destined for New Yorks ports.

:-j

[Type941]

Bisfark. :) the OTHER turret will probably miss twice as much. :rotfl:

They do look like the freaks of the Navy.

[joea]

KMS Bisfarck :up:

[cmdrk]

I think the first one to shoot a broadside will lose. The recoil would surely make it turn turtle.

[TLAM Strike]

I think if the city residents open fire those ships are toast. :hmm:

[Tanyrhiew]

HMS Whatthefark - but then again I'm a brit (even if the Whatthefark does sound canadian).

A more interesting bet would be how far those tubs move backwards when they fire their main armament.

[Davion77]

No kidding, let the New Yorkers unload on those guys. Whatthefark wins

:up:

[Syxx_Killer]

Boy, I sure hope you catch some "live" footage from the battle. :arrgh!: :rock:

[paintar]

I,m goin for the wun with the biggest lifeboat

[bookworm_020]

After thinking it over, my money is on KMS Bisfarck to win.

I just want to know what is the secondary armament?, the smell of rotting fish? :hmm:

[Der Schatten]

It's a trick! The Bisfark is actually a camoflaged conning tower to a type 35 U-boot! :yep:

[CCIP]

Well, it looks like it was pretty even right up until the end...


How did it really turn out?
Stay tuned for...

THE GREAT NAVAL BATTLE OF NEW YORK

The Bisfarck set her sights on the enemy first...
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/3645/015yy.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=015yy.jpg)
...delivering a salvo of terrifying might right across the island!
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/8754/027xc.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=027xc.jpg)
...however, it missed. Both adversaries started rounding the island.
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/527/036dh.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=036dh.jpg)
HMS Whatthefark's aim was better... if only that building wasn't in the way!
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/8397/040wv.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=040wv.jpg)
Travelling at full speed, the opponents prepared to unleash their broadsides as soon as they passed the island...
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/4484/052ou.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=052ou.jpg)
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/6285/061tt.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=061tt.jpg)
The Whatthefark was first to reload her quadruple 14" cannons, and unleashed a devastating salvo!
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/300/072kt.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=072kt.jpg)
...however...
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/4051/089cd.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=089cd.jpg)
It was now the Bisfarck's turn to bring her full firepower. Salvo!
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/7712/092gz.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=092gz.jpg)
The massive shells struck the top of Whatthefark's turret!
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/8381/106cf.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=106cf.jpg)
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/875/113ey.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=113ey.jpg)
...oh no! Whatthefark's tremendous superstructure collapsed, igniting the magazines below!
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/3720/128mo.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=128mo.jpg)
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/4561/138au.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=138au.jpg)
Oh no! The pride of the royal navy blows up in flames!
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/9594/146pd.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=146pd.jpg)
AND THE BISFARCK IS VICTORIOUS!!!
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/1272/155ny.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=155ny.jpg)












......however...




THE RAF COASTAL COMMAND ARRIVES FOR REVENGE!
As, precisely 15 seconds after the mighty Whatthefark's sinking, from the cloudy skies swoops down the fearsome...

















...CATAFARK!!!!
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/9325/165kq.jpg
:doh:

http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/7092/174ys.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=174ys.jpg)
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/2832/185cc.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=185cc.jpg)
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/6998/190xp.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=190xp.jpg)
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/619/209cy.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=209cy.jpg)

http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/391/230jx.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=230jx.jpg)

AND SO, THE TWO MIGHTY OPPONENTS SINK SIDE BY SIDE, NOT EVEN 20 SECONDS APART
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/3850/240br.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=240br.jpg)

http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/9995/269ih.th.jpg (http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=269ih.jpg)

ALL HAIL THE MIGHTY CATAFARK!

[Neutrino 123]

Catafark uber alles!

By the way, as a physics guy :ping: , I personally designed the recoiless cannon and antigravity drive.

This devices were not meant to be used for your barbaric Earth wars :nope: ! They were designed for the high and noble purpose of breaking down inhabited solar systems into their component minerals! :damn: :damn: :damn: :ping:

[Damo1977]

[Dowly]

Bisfark won the battle, but the Catafark won the war. :)

[SmokinTep]

That plane cracked me up. 2 turrets would have been cool......... :rotfl:

[Syxx_Killer]

ROFL!!!

:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

I sure didn't expect the Catafark. :rotfl: :rotfl:

Hello,
yes, we need evidence. Make a video of the Great Battle :up: :arrgh!:

Grrreetings,
Catfish

[FesterShinetop]

LMAO!! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

That was brilliant! :up:

And "Nobody ever expects... the Catafark!!" :lol:

[Oberon]

ROFLMAO!!!
Too funny, way too funny!!

What we need now is a Swordfarck plane, and the HMS Norfarck and HMS Suffarck to complete the scenario.

[CCIP]

Not to forget Prince of Farkes and Prinz Farken! :rotfl:

hmmm :hmm:

:up:

[Duke of Earl]

*bumpity-bump*... just because I liked this duel of the titans... :D

By the way, the duel turned out just about the same as the Denmark Strait.. :doh:

Cordialement, Duke of Earl

[Wolf52]

NOONE EXPECTS THE SPANIS... i mean... CATAFARK!

Funniest thing ive seen in a long time. You gotta make a video of this, with narration and all.

[Kpt. Lehmann]

Lol!

First, how fast can the crew reload? :rotfl: I think it would depend on this.

Initially I would have bet on a draw, but I now believe the recoil potential to be great enough to capsize the boats in question.... and then right them back to the surface.

Beery my friend... what are your thoughts?
:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

Cheers all! Great laugh!

It's a shame that the era of the Big Gun Ships has definitly passed.
Those impressive turrets... those gracious lines... those symbols of naval power...
:(

[Tigrone]

OK, but will the twin 15" fit on my VIIB?

I am not sure why this thread is back up :lol:

I think visually you can stick a big gun on a sub, but it won't work. Better to change your 88mm power...

[Tonnage_Ace]

I am not sure why this thread is back up :lol:

Mmmm...someone should work on a mod to change the power of an 88mm, to a single 15" gun, pretty sweet.

[Dekessey]

I am not sure why this thread is back up :lol:

...

To share it with newbs so they can have a good laugh as well!!

:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

Excellent!

[bookworm_020]

It's been a while since I last saw this thread, but it still gives me a laugh:rotfl:

I just want a mod to mount the 15" twin turret on my sub, then I can truly have fun when I enter Scapa Flow.

The escorts won't know what hit them!!:arrgh!:

Not if it's guarded by Catafark! :88)

[Melonfish]

Must apologise for necroing this thread but could someone tell me how all this was done? what tools were used to test this?
i fancy sticking a smaller twin turret on a type X and i think it might work if i find the right turret.
any help would be appreciated.
thanks

[AVGWarhawk]

Not to mention the Klingon Cloaking Device they are working on!

[Herr Russ]

Oh man, that was great... I needed that laugh!! :up:

[Morts]

now put those guns on some smaller boats :D

and let the battle begin:arrgh!: :rotfl:

[jimmie]

good things are always buried and forgotten quickly

[azn_132]

Thats weird tho two fish boats wit big ass guns? They should sink when they have that on.

[nedwreck]

Absolutely PRICELESS!!! Is there a tutorial on how to make things like that? I'd love to learn how..

Good job, y'all.

Bob

[rasmus1896]

i command you to do a bigger battle with more little ships!:smug::up:

in fact i dont but it would be very very fun:rock::rock::rock:


now put those guns on some smaller boats :D

and let the battle begin:arrgh!: :rotfl:
i agree ,but them on a sloop:up:

[Kpt. Lehmann]

.... puts five dollars on the "HMS Whatthefark.":rotfl:

[WilhelmSchulz.]

:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

NEED......... AIR!!!!!!!!!!!!:rotfl: :rotfl:

I want to see the Prince of Farkes and Prinz Farken!(PT and Schenceh boat?)

[magicsub2]

try uninstal gwx and then try to install the playable bismarck mod. you might get lucky and have a huge working cannon on your boat

[ReallyDedPoet]

Time for this one to go bye, bye.
