What kind of tankers would you like to see?
 
I am going to be updating the last few slots for oil tankers in my mod, and I was wondering what types of tanker people preferred to see. So don't be shy - let me know what you want to see in your crosshairs! Comments are welcome.

Smaller tankers
Sh3 has more than enough large tonnage ships
Smaller ones are lacking

denis_469 10-07-08 08:59 AM

I vote for small and medium, but need all tonnage.

Agree.

One or two larger types but a large selection of smaller vessels would be good. :up:

In the books that I am reading at the moment, Hitles U-boat War I-II, C, Blair, the average size of the tankers seems to be around 10,000 tonnes.(N Atlantic).

About 10k for tankers.

If you'd asked about cargo, I'd have voted 1-3k

Sailor Steve 10-07-08 10:11 AM

Of course I want the smaller ones.

I have so many names...:sunny:

Reise 10-07-08 11:30 AM

Yes lots of low tonnage tankers about in war
Lot low tonnage cargo too

Everyone release mid to big tonnage
rarely a small ship released of any sort

G.K. 10-07-08 11:34 AM

My vote for medium-small, medium and huge ones...;)

Philipp_Thomsen 10-07-08 03:00 PM

My vote would be for 30k tankers, but since it's not an option, I vote for the huge ones.

I think that TANKERS SHOULD BE HUGE! After all, they're tankers!

Anyway, I don't waste my eels on ships with less then 8k tonnes, so I wouldn't vote for small ships.:lol:

Sailor Steve 10-07-08 03:46 PM

PT, you'd be amazed at how many ships I've found in the 1000-tons range that kaleuns actually torpedoed. It seems that in real life a lot of the time they couldn't tell the difference.

Wolfehunter 10-07-08 03:48 PM

I want something super large... Since your asking hehehe.

Big and bad. Loaded and ready for a spread of torpedos to do her in.:rock:

meduza 10-07-08 03:51 PM

Large. And slow. :arrgh!:

Barrett 10-07-08 04:28 PM

Jimbuna 10-07-08 04:38 PM

That'll do nicely :lol:

Reece 10-07-08 08:27 PM

Wow, I love that one VonDos, what a monster, imagine that going down!!:eek:

richardphat 10-07-08 10:50 PM

Oil tanker+fire???
Ignition? Boom?

lutzow 10-08-08 01:12 AM

I love greatest tankers because i love great boom, great fire and great
smoke:rotfl:
Serious - i prefer great tankers. Tankers are rare in SH3 so when i finally
meet the tanker during patrol then i want him big as possible.


P.S. Did i tell that i love great tankers?;)

Adriatico 10-08-08 01:28 AM

For me tankers without escort...please.:smug:

;)
Seriously, I prefer medium to large size.
But problem is amount of RAM on your graphic card if you want realistic BOOOM!
