Good story, it has brightened up my dull day at work:up:.

We may have to start calling you German Spice from now on with all that girl power flying about.

30K is actualy what I m hoping when I take the sea and sometimes I m not reaching it!
Ended one at 66K yesterday :D
It s not that much a question of ship sunk than a question of what you are running to. 8 to 10 ship by patrol is a really nice score to me.
Your ship isn t underway right now, is it?
No?

Actualy, it can help you to reach 1944 :D

Well I'm glad you liked it! I just felt so proud of having done so well at GWX that I had to mark the occasion somehow. I definately will be writing another one, I really do hope I can survive the whole war, I would really love it if I did make it through the entire war.

Writing patrol reports is fun, but making little signatures is not my best point though its fun too, in fact, its very amateur, but I am learning, my brother over on the Ubi forums only does simple signatures too. I decided to do mine in black and white to add a certain historical feel to it. It was lucky, I had the sense to take a photograph of one of my victims mwa ha ha ha. Then it was just a simple thing to change it black and white, then I added in that candid photo of me lighting a cigar from Christmas and changed that b&w and merged it all together and wham a celebrations banner for when I succeed at my patrols, but I'll be going back to regular banner soon as I am patrolling again.

One of the things Id really like to learn is making fancy schmancy signatures like some of you guys make. I think its just gonna be practice practice practice all round, but fun it is. I will be sad when I eventually do get a proper job and have my game time reduced.

Survive the whole war:o. Usually when you are just cheeky with the crew and they have grown so much, BAM, DC'd to the ocean floor. When you hit the later years 42' on it starts to get ugly out there. Good Luck!

That s why I m surprised of the abbit you have to hunt fast screw...
It s not that I m encouraging you to be a coward, but they gonna hunt you enough that you don t need to go looking for them ;)

Well thanks for the comments gents, but, its not as though I went hunting for warships deliberately, as it happened they were in prime position for being torpedoed so I did. Its not as though I am purposefully looking to attack them, but given half a chance, I do.

Warships:o....I run the other way and do not mind telling you I do:up:

CaptainAsh 02-28-07 01:32 PM

Idem... actualy that s what BdU is asking us too.
Except on special event like operation :)

Wel I guess I should run, but I am a naturally daring person. I do things and attempt stuff that is not really advisable.

Fortune favours the bold.

Fortune favours the bold, eh?....

I have to retort with a Volkswagen publicity slogan from years ago: "Because in real life, there IS NO reset button" :D
