A month and a half at sea yielded some pretty good tonnage:

104,542 tons of merchant shipping. Nicely done :up:

WoW!!! How do you get that much tons with only a limited torpedoes?

Spytrx 05-07-07 04:59 AM

Dude, your nom de guerre........:lol: ! Good shooting, and yes drinks on you!

LOL If I am reading right, that's 25 ships total..

I'm sorry but there must be some sort of cheat going on.. Even with the deck gun. You must have somethin unlimited.

Not necessarily... he has a Type IXB which has plently of torpedo stores, and could have even resupplyed if he has GWX.

I had one patrol on a VII that yielded 107,000 tons. If you use the one torpedo= one ship philosophy, use your deck gun, and are selective about your targets, it takes work, but you can go well over 100Ks. With 21 torpedoes in a type IX, it is somewhat easier. :yep:

You don't really, even with an VII you have 14 torps, counting for each one large cargo of 10kt you end up with 140k if you are careful... and then there is the deck gun.

Not very realistic, but possible.
