OK, i blew a ship into the air...

The image is edited for dramatic effect but ive got the original. Here's how it happened...

I run SH41.5, TMO and RSRD. I was in campaign and nosing around Iwo Jima bored when i spied that ship in dock. Only it was quite "in" the dock. I think it had been placed at 45 degrees off and was rubbing up hard against the dock wall, not quite fitting. The physics and map were having a bit of an argument with each other about whether the ship should be in or out so it was vibrating somewhat. However, to put it out of its misery i thought i would poach an easy kill so i put a couple into him...

BOOM! The thing leapt into the air, now released from its confinement and to make it better snapped into two pieces as it went. I just had to capture it, it was too funy to leave there. Since the impact of the "leap" i missed, i added some motion blur to try to liven it up.

I left it sitting on the dock wall in two bits. It doesnt scream any longer :)

I got one with the deck gun a few days after being bombed at sea by a pair of 'em. Sweet revenge. And yeah, I'd love a screenie of that.
