Thanks for the warm welcomings!

@Hakahura
Yeah, the mission was quite boring apart from that incident. I got the flooding under control at about 100 m depth and evaded the destroyer. After that, I patrolled my grid, left it after 24 h and roamed around the Atlantic, only encountered lone merchants, sunk all I could, and returned to port without encountering any warships and only a few aircraft. Hull integrity 47%, I tested saving and diving as deep as I could, just out of curiosity, pressure hull faliure at 120 m, so I was fortunate to have such a good damage control crew... :up:

@Corsair
No problem, haven't had a girlfriend since May (the same month I bought SH III... strange coincidence...)

@_Seth_
Silly me, didn't bother changing the file format. It's .bmp, I will use .jpg in the future, honest! ;)

@Subwolf
Yeah, quite a few Norwegians and some Swedes here. Good to be in such a good company!

BTW - bagged my first passenger liner yesterday. :D

Good hunting!

Welcome aboard Ulven, Glad to see your not afraid of the RAF!

Hope your luck keeps up with the passanger liners and other juicy targets, it makes it sweeter when you bag one after a long struggle.

BTW Good luck on the girfriend situation, I had the reverse happen to me, I got the game and found a girl, where getting married April next year (She found her Wedding dress on Monday!) so I'll be playing this game alot less in future:cry:. I guess sacrifices must be made.....

Being married is spending a lot of time together solving problems you wouldn't have if you stayed single...:lol: Good luck anyway...

Hey guy, get a U-flak and you will have no problem

But, wait, you should dive when you see planes. Don't attempt to see anything eye candy since you are not supposed to see (you may die as a result of this)

My record is 23 planes down with U-flak (unnormal since U-boat usually dives when seeing planes, not engaging them)


most of them are scouts, Ha ha!!!

Have a nice day!

Whatever you do, go at flank speed if you are engaging.

Oh, I'm afraid, very afraid. Almost crapped my pants when those 12 Sunderlands attacked me. And that particular carreer ended only fifteen minutes ago, two Sunderlands, I crash dove as fast as I could, but they never gave me a chance. Pity, was just heading home after giving a convoy hell.

And hey, isn't love about sacrificing things? If you sacrifice time playing SH for her, I mean, that has got to mean something!

No more engaging for me for a while, I prefer the comfort of the deep... :cool:

Then you are truly a kaleun!

(But who doesn`t give the RAF a good fight now and then, after all we dont have to worry about stupid things like death and such)

TarJak 12-02-06 12:25 AM

Welcome aboard Ulven!. Hope our little gathering can help you out if you've got a question.

Looks like you know what you are doing though!

Gute Jagd!
