There is one in Wilhelmshaven, but unless you want the Tirpitz on your ass, don't shoot it down!

On two occasions I saw a blimp going down by itself. I manned my guns and waited to came closer, when it just fell into the sea. Wonder what happened? :hmm:

Can happen when aircraft - blimps too - are sent from an airbase usually after a report from another ship you are there
They seem to reach the end of their range and just end it all
Aircraft usually spiral lower and lower till hit the sea
Most odd

That explains it. :up: I remember on one of those occasions I thought I was safe, out of the air cover range. I was surprised when I saw that blimp, even more so when the blimp crushed into the ocean. :D

Now, at some point a US Navy balloon was spotted.
I fired one heavy flak round but i decided to let it approach so i'll enjoy the explosion.
It came at about 1km so i let my crewmen to send it some led but nothing happened!
I fired at it myself too, but again nothing.
Nothing on the balloon itself, nothing at the cockpit, nothing at the engines...
Well, it didnt done any harm besides a couple of holes in the hull, but i would really enjoy it if i had seen that going b00m...!

Send your gunners for more training http://www.psionguild.org/forums/ima...ies/pirate.gif
