You can't make this stuff up.

they were prolly like

"what are we building? this isn't a weapon is it?....nahhhh...I mean who's crazy enough to build a warship out of ice anyways"

You know it.They probably also didn't mention that the inventor came up with the idea while "resting" in a Mental Institution for "stress" after escaping a Nazi death camp.Or that he demonstrated the idea by shooting at ice and wounding a guy.I swear they should make a movie about this guys life using monte python.The thing that really gets me though is that you have mods for this game including submersible big battle ships,a shark with mini guns and a sam site launcher,and a 688i attack sub.... But my idea is the crazy one to try and put in the game even though Habbakuk is the one that a navy in real life was actually going to build.It's like an endless sea of comedy.:har:

And here I thought all along this was some weird ship that the devs made up for the Warship Gunner series.

Never played warship gunner,but unfortunately for the world the weirdness was real.I would have done it already myself for this but I don't have the skills.Still on the learning curve and this isn't exactly a beginners project.Right now I would be lucky to pull off a sucessful sampan mod.I did always love the idea though.It just shows how weird and desperate people get when they are trying to kill each other.It's a scary war out there.:salute:

I can only imagine.Remember when the CIA had the idea of putting cameras on cats.God only knows how much that research cost.:har:But floating ice ships,now that's crazy.
