U-55 makes her last kills for me
 
U55 a type VIIB made its last kill with me this morning, she sank a fiji class cruiser in lock ewe but earlier in er patrol she also sank the battle ship HMS King George the fifth in Scapa flow.

Despite coming under heavy enamy air attacks and also facing alot of destroyers and armed trawlers the U-55 made it though with very little damage.

U-55 has been passed on to another captain and i will now take charge of the type IXD U boat U-806.

I now have over 200,000 tonnes sunk :D (note using SH3 Commander and also at 95% realism)

Well done :up:

Best of luck to your new command and I hope you send the whole British Fleet to the bottom of the sea :D :D

Good Luck and Good Shooting

You are going to find that the IXD2 is a totally different boat. Enjoy it, but watch those dive times;)

95% realism...:hmm: that sounds like you have everything disabled except for the Weapons Officer help. That is a mighty fine bit if realism. More real thatn full 100% IMO. That also means you is doing this Shee-ot manual style. To quote Borat "Very Nice!"

Hi, how many torps did you use to sink the HMS King George ?

Kapitan 11-06-06 11:09 AM

it took 4 she started to move just after the first hit the second missed the third and fourth hit then she sank.

The fiji cruiser went down in one blew her screws clean off and it was with tube 5 so i was well chuffed but on my way i sank a T3 Tanker C3 cargo and also a C2 cargo and a tug boat with gun fire and a torpedo or two at the end of te mission i had nothing in the mags.
