So why is the Gestapo watching me?
 
I know that everyone is talking about how paranoid I am :o

Running 1.4 + Commander + GWX

I am in Lorient getting ready to start a mission. I decided that instead of plotting my course out of the harbour (Why can’t SH3 have the “start out of port” option that SH4 has?), I decided to have another look around.

I had the usual military band and the flock of toothsome nurses throwing flowers at me. Even the guards were waving at me...... <cue sinister music> But not every one seemed to be happy.:nope:

Just astern on the quay are two men with black trench coats. They are not waving nor cheering. Just staring at me, smoking.

Why am I under suspicion? I am sinking merchants most righteously and representing the service honourably.

Why am I being watched?

I think there was a mod released a little while ago which enabled one to start out of port. Not sure if there is a version for 2.0 though.

What are you talking about? No one is watching you.

Nor is anyone reading your mail.




But we know.

We're all being watched...
Someone tried to poison Herr Fhurer and the only trace they got from the traitor was a stain of torpedo grease on the dish:shifty:
Not to mention the chap that always pretends to start up his bike when in fact he stays on the pier giving reports to one of those smoking guys...

What if instead of Gestapo agents they were actually French Partisans in disguise there to "see you off"? :shifty:

Better have the crew do a close inspection of the boat before you get too far from home!

Don't look back, never look back :cool:

Oh come now, you're not suggesting you didn't know you'd draw that kind of attention when you came in here wearing paisley pants!:shifty:

So I just wanted to "express" myself differently. Does that make me a bad person? :cry:

Do you member what that mod was called?

Having to maneuver out of harbours ever single time is one thing I really hate about SH3. That much realism I can do without ;)

Absolutely not! According to "modern" psychology, there are no "bad people", only bad fashion choices.:rock:

I wish I could, I have been searching but no luck so far. I will keep trying.

Personally I like the plotting of the course and sailing out of harbour - especially Wilhelmshaven. Every time I leave there, or arrive home after a patrol I sail past the Tirpitz and as time and patrols have gone by I have to admit to feeling rather resentful of that massive heap of armour and guns which never seems to leave port while I and my crew have to take huge risks in a U-Boat. I sometimes believe that if I sailed close enough to it during an evening departure, or arrival, I'd hear the clink of cocktail glasses.

I know I volunteered, but ............as the Tommies would say "We should all do our bit, old bean."

I've even fantasised about putting a torpedo, or a few rounds from the deck-gun into it - just to wake them up and give them a taste of real action.

Needless to say, passing the "great ship" puts me into a nicely aggressive mood at the start of a patrol; so I go a-hunting for something I can take it out on without ending up facing a firing-squad.

IIRC it was made by Rubini and it was called 'Start at Sea'

They just wanted to make absolute sure that you didn't ship out without Bernard on board.:D
