Port at last. My beloved Lorient. A sight for sore eyes and the end of patrol #2:smug:

Low and behold I have completed a second patrol. Not only that, I did it in fine fashion. Best patrol I have ever had. Medals all around! The drinks are on me boys. See you at the Rusty Hull Bar and Grill:up: . Ah, you non-believers.... I stand proud on my conning tower of U-124. Revel in my greatness!



I know....it is about friggin' time;)

Congrats, and job well done AVGWarhawk!

I just had a great third patrol, first one for my new VIIB. While going along my Watchman said 'Ship spotted' in a very excited tone of voice. Took a look and a Task Force was coming down the pipe in front of me at 21 kts! To make a long story short, I had to react quickly, but I managedd to get in front of the escort on the TF's flank and I set myself up and aimed at an HMS Rodney at a range of around 1300m(iirc), with a salvo of 3 torps. Shortly after firing them another ship had the audacity to loom into view in the line of fire of the shots I just made. Two of the torps hit the ship that loomed into view and sunk her, third torp never hit anything. Well, ended up it was almost as good as a Rodney, it was a Revenge Class Warship! I don't know how long it'll be before I get that lucky again. :hmm: In the end I got 32,000t of Warship and 34,000t of Merchants!

Anyway, glad to see you've finally lived to go out to sea for a third patrol AVGWarhawk. :) Good hunting to ya!

Cheers

AVG, You show off. :rotfl:

Well you did good, looks like you and your crew with be out on the town for a while. :()1:

It is funny, I was on MSN with Morts last night. He thought I was kidding on the dying on all my second patrols. It was the truth. Every second patrol I was sunk. I think the reason is after installing GWX I was looking to see what I can do and can't do concerning the DD. I always found out the hard way on #2. Start a new career every sinking I had. Anyway, this was the best performance I have done in this game.Those whalers are great. First time I had seen one. I got lucky on the fat tanker on the way home! One torpedo and lost so shells
