Why U-Flak is a bad idea [pics]

[CCIP]

You think this is one hot boat, don't you? :hmm:
I thought it'd be cool to try a U-Flak career in RUb....

Yup, those Sunderlands and Catalinas can be a pain in the anus when it comes to collisions. If I only see them coming I always hit ahead flank and hard to side. As they tend to bomb me while diving, shooting them down makes them continue their flight right onto my deck. I have never been sunk with bombs. With collisions - many times.

HOLY GUACAMOLE BATMAN!

Crimeny... ouchie ouch ouch. :ping:

[andy_311]

Same thing happened to me in April 45 shot down a Sunderland and it decided to crash into my conning tower destroying all my flak guns killing 1 officer and all my Elite flak gunners and to add salt to my injury next patrol the same thing happend again.

[Sarge McSarge]

Damn those kamakazie Sunderlands.

CoPilot " I say isn't that a jolly old U boat on the surface"
Pilot "I do believe you are correct old boy "
Gunner "Look out he's shooting at us."
Pilot "Cheeky blighter, well we will soon fix him. Ok chaps stand by to ram."
Gunner "Excuse me skipper isn't that a bit dangerous"
CoPilot "Dangerous, of course it's dangerous but there is a war on you know"
Gunner "But it still a bit extreme isn't it?"
Pilot "Stop snivelling it's for King and country after all. Stiff upper lip and all that. Last one in the drink is a rotten egg."

Impressive. :rotfl:

[Syxx_Killer]

Blimey! It's RAF Flitanic!

If I ever saw something like that coming at me I would crash dive and pull the plug. I ain't never comin up! :hulk: :rotfl:

[CWorth]

only one word comes to mind..

OUCH!!!!! :o

Yep, you must tell your flakgunners to fire at close range (and not at mid or long range), that way the plane always fly's over and crashes in front of you and never on your deck:)

Someone was hurt bad, we have 2 Medics in this post !!

[big_feef]

While I've never actually been sunk by kamikazi bombers, I have had several crash on my decks before... killing my watch crew and gunners in almost all cases and doing massive damage to my sub, effectively ending my patrol. That is why I never tango with planes if I can avoid it; the risk just isn't worth it in terms of renown.

I do have one off-topic question... where did you get that type VIIC camo skin? That looks so sexy!

[CWorth]

That looks like one of Konrad Krums skins

You can get it here

Look for the file

or if you like rusty looks

[urseus]

How could possiby have been screenshoting that?

[Karl-Heinz Jaeger]

Ouch! But again, awesome screenies!!

I hope you've got a bit of masking tape handy, that may just leave a dent in the sub!

:rotfl: :up: :rotfl:

[SmokinTep]

That is awesome.......... :rotfl:

[Syxx_Killer]

I'm surprised it hasn't been asked yet. :88) How did you make that thing so honkin huge? :o

[U-104]

Hurricanes crash into me. :damn:

[U-104]

If you look closely at the first picture you can see the watch officer looking in the opposite direction. :rotfl: :rotfl:

[CCIP]

I'm surprised it hasn't been asked yet. :88) How did you make that thing so honkin huge? :o

It's that big by default. You just can't tell how big until it's in your conning tower :rotfl:

Though my 25FOV external camera also might have to do with how it looks :)
