Who is Capt. Rahn??

"Heard from Captain Rahn yet?" The question i ask the radio guy sometimes.
Anyone have idea who this is? Maybe somone to rendezvous with and go hunting in a tiny wolfpack.

I believe he is the U-boat captain from the beginning of the game.

Good question, I wouldnt mind knowing myself :-)

It is the captain you took over after. The one from the tutorial mission. He moves on to command another boat and you move up to commander. He gives a little lecture about being a warrior and taking care of his old crew just before you set out on your first patrol as commander of U-29(?).

Ok, why am i trying to contact him then??

to find out which brothel he likes best.

Because he was your old captain and you're interested in whether or not he's still alive.

EDIT: And which brothel he likes.

+1 ;)

Captain Rahn is the anti-hitler captain who sits around doing nothing for 3 days while you sink 5 ships and conn the boat singlehandedly. And for this he is rewarded with U-1something or other. I'm only in Febuary 1940 so i dont know what happens to him.

He's anti nazi, so i'm sure he'll die, another attempted realignment of the nazi people's true moral compass :P (Almost half of germany was nazi in the mid 1930's, but according to SH5 by 1939 they are down to something like 4 or 5 percent :) (only one person out of like 16 is an open nazi, one is "A bit racist".

Well. Lets hope i meet him again then, and maybe we can have some german beer. Havent got any answer yet....

:rotfl2:

Beautiful assessment.

He has got the best voice acting in the game, however.

Would be really nice to have more (tutorial) missions with him, learning the tools of the trade.

:timeout: Actually Captain Rhan is the chief on the ship your radio guy`s brother got assigned to.

No. The radioman's brother is on the Bismarck, and she'll make her first and only dive in -41. Rahn is assigned to command another U-boat after the first patrol.

Why are Captain Rahn and Lt Eyepatchenheimer never seen together? What are they trying to hide? Our exclusive investigation reveals the shocking truth.

But this is not all of "Captain Rahn's", if that's indeed his real name, devious plan. He has another accomplice deep in the heart of the Kriegsmarines maintenance system. Our team of investigtors haven't discovered his true identify but he goes by the code name: BK_C_CARRY01.

Who is BK_C_CARRY01 and why is he using lo-res meshes? What conection does he have with Lt. Eyepatchenheimer? Are they indeed separate individuals or merely Rahn in disquise? Our team of tireless investigators have indeed discovered the shocking answer.

Captain Rahn is...
