U-46 Sunk off West Coast of Britain -44 crew lost
U-46 Was Dc'ed for over 4 hours by 8 Warships with both electric engines destroyed, compressor not working. Both periscopes destroyed and other damage. The captain set tubes 1 thru 4 for a salvo at a 5 degree spread and blew ballast. All hands were lost in 120m seas. Not Your Grandmothers Mod! :yeah:
Odds don't look good. http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2005-8/1059112/U46a.jpg Last moment. http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2005-8/1059112/U46b.jpg |
All hands lost? the picture shows your boat at the surface. Maybe you should have order abandon ship.
Sorry to hear about your lost. |
Is it possible to order abandon ship in the game?
|
What was the point of the 4 eel salvo? Just hoping to get a lucky hit or did you need to lose the weight in order to surface?
|
You can't abandon ship or surrender in game so I tried a salvo to see if I could take any of the destroyers with me to the bottom.:D In RL I would have to scuttle my boat but the DD's took care of it in about 15 to 20 seconds :nope:
EDIT- NYGM is a tough mod. At least 6 of the DD's that attacked me were not from the convoy but came as reinforcements from local ports or patrols. This was in that channel on West side of Britain with a narrow long island on the other side. I honestly believe that if I had not been destroyed these DD's would have followed me until I ran out of air. |
