Raid on Portland
 

Ahoy shipmates :D Just thought i would mention a quick dit from my last patrol.

I have just recently raided Portland Naval Base off the south coast of England in October of 1940. After sinking a very large Passenger Liner, (no doubt to be used to transfer thousands of Tommy's across the pond) my attention was turned to an anchored tanker, just as i was about to make my attack I saw (through the periscope) a number of Stuka's attacking the tanker and the naval base. After several dives on the tanker it was only just afloat, at which time I fired a fish right into the engine compartment and claimed the 23000 ton kill as my own.
In all I sank 2 Hunt Class Destroyers, a passenger liner and a tanker with torpedos and an armed trawler and torpedo boat with my deck gun.:rock:
To kill the armed trawlers just get right up behind them and stay up thier backsides whichever way they turn hammering them with the deck gun, they soon go bottoms up.

What are the chances of the Luftwaffe turning up on the same killing ground as me, as the base wasnt in my orders, I am currently hopping from one harbour to another and causing chaos.

That is all :up:

I've done the same raid, with LSH3, but all that Ju-88s (with that mod there are hundreds) were a little much for my PC, hab about 1 Fps during the attack.

well i sailed to portland yesterday and sunk 2 ships
then disaster.......battery ran out and i had to surface :damn:
but lucky me the weather was so bad that i didn get spotted
U-503 made it home without a scratch:)

It happens a lot with GW. I've hit numerous ports and seen the Luftwaffe pinch quite a few renown filled kills off me!:damn:

Yep...I ran into a TF in the Bay of Biscay with two Nelsons in it...then Fatso Hermann's boys blew them to straight back to Scapa! *waves fist at the Luftwaffe* I was about ready to surface and shoot me down a few Ju88s!
