Top of the world?
 
What happens if you head due north in GWX? Do you sail off the edge of the world or hit an iceberg?

_Seth_ 03-26-07 08:13 PM

I think you will hit a stone wall of some sort, instead of the ice-cap....IIRC, someone posted a pic of this wall some time ago..:hmm:

Dowly 03-26-07 08:14 PM

Yeh, the north cap is there, but IIRC it´s stone, not ice. ;)

Foghladh_mhara 03-26-07 08:44 PM

Well theres a mission for me! I will photograph this wall and report back :up: If you dont hear from me again it means there was no wall, it is the edge of the world and U-48 and Kaleun Harry Frank will be the first submariners in space!

Thanks :D I wasn't keen on it at first but how can you not like having a nappy with a red cross on your head? Gives those Hurricane pilots something definate to aim at:D

What a shame I was hoping the GWX guys had a bit of fun and have your U-Boat fall of the edge of the map and pop up down under, Good day Australia. :-j

bigboywooly 03-27-07 03:30 PM

You can sail off left down by NZ and pop back in the right side of the map in the Pacific though

:rotfl:

Foghladh_mhara 03-28-07 06:04 PM

Well unfortunately Kaleun Frank and the crew of U-48 had a meeting with destiny but Kaleun Sperling and the good men of U-49 took up the challenge. And yes the north pole is made of stone contrary to popular belief. It also starts about 600nm from the top of the screen so not a good idea to go racing up there at 1024x tc if your not near the computer. Job done now back to more serious affairs :up: http://img402.imageshack.us/img402/9...heworldas1.jpg

I wonder what happens if you sail due west:hmm:

STEED 03-28-07 06:08 PM

Ask Kirk to find out?

TarJak 03-29-07 05:25 PM

P_Funk 03-29-07 05:52 PM
