SHIPWRECK and SALVATION
1940. U-48 sinks a British tanker, American steamer, and a British modern merchant - all stragglers from an eastbound convoy. The following day, HMS "Somali" and HMS "Lord Middleton" rescue the three ships' survivors.

Not sure how he managed to bring his camera, considering that the stock SH3 damage model sank his ship in 5 minutes. :-? http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d5...alvation21.jpg http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d5...alvation22.jpg ABS Green's boat rows to the "HMS Somali". http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d5.../gunners-1.jpg http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d5...Salvation3.jpg A pair of views from the rescuers' perspective.

Cheers IBL! |
i´m playing GWX 2.1. Someone can tell me with which mod can i see the huge holes in the hulls of the ships (4.-5 pages before)? :o In GWX alone, only a black shadow in the site of impact.
And what about the lifeboats and the survivors? Thank you guys. Edit: I found them in another post, 8 pages before. |
One of our WAC users made a real good shot from the beach :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
