It's because of your careless actions and ceaseless attacks on these wholesome mom-and-pop oil companies that gas prices keep going up...:nope::nope::nope:


;)

Thats the first thing i thought when i saw her in the news this morning "oooowww...Look at the tonnage":D , i think ive been playing SH3 to much ;)

I'd rather go for this 'baby'! :arrgh!:

@Dante80: Yummy! Check the draft. No need for magnetics on those suckers!

Hunting outside Sydney harbour would be fine for the next few days. There are 4 liners visiting this week alone!

QM2, QE2, Van Gogh and Silver Cloud for a total of 252674 tons! get those eels ready boys!

Heh, one SPREAD would open it up like a cardboard box.

Well they do have a double hull and a capacity to flood for 13 years before they sink....:rotfl:

Argh. :damn: :damn: :damn:

Anyways, I take it that the 13-year sinking time (0% realism!:rotfl:) is from hull breaches due to grounding only? If you fire at only one spot, doesn't the double hull give way for the oil to spill and eventually ignite from the explosions?

I said 13 years because in the pics, they are in ballast. Flooding 650,000 m³ (4.1 milliom barrels) with water coming through the small hole that a torp would make to the double hull....would be time consuming I guess...:rotfl:

Double hulls? No problem. Send torpdoes in tandem. Torp 1 holes outer skin. Number two follows and zaps the inside. Just like an antitank missile.

Drooooool. Yup we've been Subsimming too long :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

what about the "Berge Stahl"...........350-360k tons:arrgh!:

:oops: Yeah, stick your chest out with pride for sinking a mega-tanker.

...for having created an ecological disaster the world would never recover from...yeah, thats the ticket.

...but, wouldn't it be neat to "capture" it without damage, providing your side with survivable assets.

A 500.000ton blockade runner?...She would be spotted a continent away. :yep:

I'd rather sink her in ballast. :rock:



:rotfl:

Sorry for the DP but I just had to post this pic....:rotfl:

Just look at the T2...and then the Atlantic...hell...this girl would need a lot of torps to go down...:ping:

Well I went and saw QM2 and QE2 when they were visiting - I live only about 6km from the harbour.

When QM2 left that night at about 2300hrs, she sounded her horn as she made her way through the heads. That was at about 2341hrs. How do I know? Because I heard it VERY CLEARLY in my bedroom and looked at the clock!!

I do wish the stupid media people would stop referring to QE2 and QM2 as "sister ships"....

She docks at Quebec 2 or 3 times every years :) I don t like such ship. Actualy she doesn t look like a ship and worse, she can t submerge!
Well... actualy she can... but if she does, she can t surface anymore:rotfl:
Impressive sight...

About modern tanker, actualy they could be easyer to sink than good old T2/T3 if they would be empty. I guess that with 2 or 3 torps same side, the monster is doomed. With his compartment geting flooded only one side, they re just gonna roll over themself:rotfl:

Arg....regretably most VLLC have a system for automaticaly flooding any compartment....:oops:
