Well done, the luck of a cat rests with you :|\

Thx .

I have to say that it was good fun but stressfull !
I paused the game once for a coffee , but I had to play it real time , time compression is obviously a no-no in that kind of situation .

Basically , Scapa Flow as been a 9 Hrs straight run , and I only made a couple of hundred nm .

I saw 1 anti-sub net ~I was scanning with the peri slightly up~ but no minefields .

But I regret something : to have been too quiet and not to have fought a Destroyer or two . :roll: :hmm:

Cheers .

Patrol No. 27 , December 1943 .

U-100 "Blackcat" left Lorient with a good load .

I spent many renown points to get an aggressive load , including no less than 3 acoustic Torps , 1 TI fat 1 and 1 fat 2 .
I guess I just want to make a point after our run in Scapa Flow , and the crew needs to trust his Cpt , once for all ...

Grid patrol is AL85 , one of my favorite hunting ground .

...

We sank 3 coastal Merchants and 1 small merchant with our deck gun on our way to the Grid . Weather was excellent for December and I still have my 14 Torps onboard .

We spent Christmas at Sea :( but we had a good party ! :D
Our cook did his best to please everyone ! Man , that was a Party we 're not going to forget !!

We started 50m deep ~to be safe from a possible collision~ and everyone was invited , even my sonar man !
(Don 't tell Donitz :-? )

menu was :

- Eggs benedict with "almost" fresh spinash
- French smoked ham ~similar to Parma ham~ with rosted "Kartoffels"
- Frankfurt sausages and beans
- Dried apricots from Spain with english custard and "glace" cherries , served with Blitzkuchen Mit Apfeln Apple Cake !! :P

(if we get a Medal , it has to go to our Chef !)

I did buy some cheap Champagne from the "Chat Noir" in Lorient before to leave Port .
2 cases of "Becks" and some French cognac helped us to be "not in condition to f**k" ! :cool:

By 2 am , everybody was pissed and Chief said that he could take the boat to 300m deep without any problem !
Nevertheless , I maintained depth at 50m ... :lol:

One of our machinist gave us a stip-tease while our radio-man put on some "Rita cadillac" on the gramophone :huh:

God , it was ... special !!! :-j

...

24 Hrs later and the pukes 's splashes cleared up , we were back to war ...

B. Goelf out .

Cheers .
