Damnit Murphy!
 

My first patrol in my new IXC. Im several hundred miles off the coast of freetown working a large convoy that contained 2 large tankers and 2 medium tankers. I am having more luck with this convoy than I have had with any other. Regardless of the fact that it is now early 1942, I decided to take a couple of long range shots at 2 of the flower corvettes that detected me. Scored a few lucky shots and sank them both. Downed all of the tankers and paused the sim to go to bed. Why save it I thought? Its never crashed on me before and what are the odds of the power going out? Well *&^%! i woke up early today to a storm that put the power out. I lost it all. Here I sit back in Lorient with a tear in my eye...like that Indian in that commercial who saw all of that trash on the ground.

Nipples that is truly a attack of the murphy:down: now u sure that bernard aint been near your house mate:hmm:

Nice pic in your sig. Shallow water indeed. We all know what bernard is getting looking through that scope,...and its no medal.

Shame...mine crashes at least once i night. I save religously - after every stricken ship takes on enough water to get marked in kaleun's logbook.

I had that problem. In fact I moth balled the game for a while. I have installe\reinstalled many many many times. Something turned out right this time. Also,...found the nemo codec pack on my comp beore I installed last time. Not sure how it got there as I thought I uninstalled it before one of my last install attempts. Maybe thats what was crashing my game on the previous installs.

Too bad, Nips. You had a great beginning. :rock: Those Freetown convoys are great to trash for several days. I'm heading that way right now. I hope to sink one of the escorts early to reduce their depth charges and then wear them out.

Mmmmmm freetown i feel the need for a suntan coming on wait up brag and remmber to bring your hat for the sun:up:

Its not too late for me to change coarse, but I am commited to NY.:D
