1. The ship was armed , so she was a valid target:D

2. The port of Peiraius - Athens - has been attacked several times during WWII both by the Luftwaffe and the Allied airforces. There are shots of ships exploding in port after air attacks. I will post them when I find them.
In a single occasion an ammunition ship was hit and exploded in port of Peiraius and debris has landed some 30 kms inland reaching the city of Athens with heavy loss of life.
To my knowledge , NY harbor has never been attacked.

3. I appologise if I have offended you with this screenshot. I was just playing the game.

Screenshot is just ironic. Why would you do that to those poor people? At least wait until there out in the altalantic where they will freeze in the water:har:

No offense taken, I'm just ambivalently amused and shocked at the same time by the sight :) It is a game after all.

It would very interesting to see the pictures of the Peiraius attacks! Hope you find them!

Insert gratuitous necro pic and low low necro score. Of course 6-7 posts does give a nice bonus.

@vonharris...nice shot! :D

STEVE!!!

Stop giving out all our national secrets! ....SSssssshhhhh.....!

(The French gave it to us, but the Japaneese contractors made some...modifications.)

:O:

New York, New York
 

I saw New York as an easy target just after the Yanks declared war and kept going back, sinking everything in the harbour then preying on their Eastern seaboard, great fun , then the next time I went in, Total Shock, anti sub and torpedo nets everywhere and heavy gunfire from ships and shore batteries!

Sailed to NY just after Pearl Harbor in a Type IX and didn't receive a very warm welcome:doh: pinged and dc'd before I could get a glimpse of Lady Liberty. I just wanted to see the skyline.

I've been meaning to sail to NY for a while now, this thread has convinced me I need to do it. Now may be the time, as I've ruined my current install by playing with various files for the mod I'm working on...a good time for a possible suicide mission. :arrgh!:

I went there a few weeks ago. Took me ages to creep in, thought I was going to get pinged a couple of times.

I play D.I.D so I looked, but didn't touch, never been so tempted though!

Old passenger liner? Looks like the Normandie in your scope.

Haha you're probably right, I didn't pay much attention to my recognition manual I was too busy sightseeing :)

Just want to add to this post.

This is my first operation drumbeat trip, and looking forward to seeing Lady Liberty!
