Some of you may remember this ad that ran in a gamer magazine promoting SCS-Dangerous Waters. Well today I find my self working on one of my Virtual Sailor projects, I’m painting the model in Photoshop and listening to some music. I get to a point where I want to see how my painting looks so I go to open up 3D Exploration to make a render. Well playing in the background is the Buffalo Springfield song “For What It’s Worth” and the lyric “Paranoia strikes deep, in to your life it will creep” comes up and instead of opening 3D Ex I open DW!

There are sinister corporate forces at work here gentlemen… :shifty:

The ad had the words "Strike Deep" on it and the song had the words "strikes deep" in it. See the link...

Touche! ;)

Didn't even know about that Oberon until I was searching for the Oberon SS :-?
Quite why the RN decided to name a class of sub after the king of the fay eludes me, still a good name though :up:

Though I still think that they should have named a Traffie sub HMS Thunder Child :D

Maybe the RN wanted his power of instantaneous transportation but...................the photo hardly seems Star Wars. :lol:
So maybes it was 'reading minds'......................Nup some 'ole guy at Admiralty House was told ' Were doing Os next guv !'
