*pats StarLion's shoulder*

its okay mate, theyll get picked up by the one you didnt find and theyll radio a task force or two...;)

RUN!!!

or hide and wait to blow up the task force too...buahahah\a!

Lifeboats are modeled in the game? I've never seen one like that. When do they appear after a sinking?

It's a mod. Go look at the SHIII mod forum, I think it's on page 3. :yep:

Thanks, I'll have a look. :up:

Use your machine gun Starlion, just in case.. :lol:

Contact!! Go wash your mouth out...tch:nope:

Shooting unarmed survivors in a liferaft! I dont think so. It may of been done, but i think were better than animals.

Okay allright whats the matter here ?! :) As for me you can roleplay taking them up aboard feed and warm them if u're not affraid of sabotage. Leaving them in the middle of the ocean is some sort of animality too :)

In the novel Das Boot, Buchheim talks about a captain who shot up the life boats before they were lowered. Anybody know the historical validity of that story?

What if there are no ship available to pick them? Die by hunger?:nope:

I think it is the U 515 under Werner Henke
Henke was shot trying to escape from a POW camp.

I will try to find it

Dutchie-one :damn:

Sorry wrong name it is Heinz-Wilhelm Eck of U 852 together with 2 of his officers

You'll need "lifeboats" and the "rowers". Just enable the rowers AFTER the lifeboats :)

cheers

Well, they usually die of thirst, over-exposure to the sun (in the tropic) or cold (in north Atlantic), first. Many sailors survive the attack only to die later of thirst in Open Ocean.

See the Story about SS City of Cairo.

From wiki;
'The sinking Peleus left a large debris field, amongst which were a number of survivors clinging to rafts and wreckage. This field would have betrayed the presence of the U-852 to aircraft and shipping patrolling the area, so Eck then controversially decided to destroy the wreckage with the use of hand grenades and automatic weapons.
As a result of this action, all but three of Peleus's crew perished.'
