I saw a larger one in an online book once, but forgot where i found it. If your thinking about tinkering with it so i stay away from your boat, make the background transparent, and the acutal decal white instead of black, as i tend to use darker sub skins.

Might be easier if i just chose another boat though.

:damn: There's no enough detail/res to work with.:nope:

Awesome insigna though eh? A flippered cow belching and farting torpedo's. :D
edit: i might have that online book saved at home on my hard drive, ill see if i can find it later.

Depending on the mod, theres cruiser parked there. I think its a Fiji or a Dido, i forget which. Don't go to far inside the harbor though or your liable to discover a mine the hardway. On the plus side, usually only an armed trawler patrols the place. Makes a nice little stop over when enroute to the GR grids.

well, independed of any boat, when I am to long at sea, when going to bed I still see everything wobbling for my eyes.. real life effect of waves.

I would love to ausblasen my VIIC right between Ducimus and Danlisa, do a 360 around them, and then crash dive. Need for elegance! Need for agility! Need for female shapes! Need for VIIC!

Ducimus 01-05-07 09:51 PM

Your boat woudln't have enough fuel to reach us to begin with, or at the least, not enough to get back to port . :lol:

:rotfl:What would you hang on your wall, a Monet or a pig?

Seriously, I love all U-Boats, even the duck, but you guys are REALLY in love with your IX`s.

AVGWarhawk 01-05-07 09:58 PM

Yeah, my IXB is a fuel hog. I have to really watch it. She is a big fat beautiful pig but I love her anyway:smug:

Bernard is a good swimmer and we have a toe rope for him to hold.

All early war* u-boats had a crude mast and sail in case of fuel emergencies as well. :doh:

* not sure about late/mid war
