When You Think You Have Seen Everything.
I invested nearly a full half hour setting up an attack and waiting for the target to come into position. I never use time compression except for long distance travel so each attack is a real investment in time.
I was in shallow water, just outside the harbor in Iceland waiting out a M31B. The ship got to about 10 degress from my hitting the fire button....and it just disappearred. Vanished. Poof. Gone.:o No explosion. No Smoke. Just no ship. Jumped to the hydrophone...dead quite all 'round the dial. I couldn't begin to guess the number of attacks I've been through with SHIII.... has to be thousands...but I never...ever saw this one before.....:nope: Don't really care to see it again. Klingon Cloaking Device on board I suppose...:-? |
Some really strange occasion,

Credit for the kill
You know you would have sunk it. Everyone on board agrees.
Write it up in the log as a catch. Congratulations. :hmmm: |

I thought about the "delete on last waypoint." factor. Unusual that the last WP was so far from the logical ending point..the port facility. |

You have to know when you can go where...:yep: Early in the war the merchants waddle into Iceland like ducks at the carnival shooting gallery. No bad guys around to give one grief either. I had just been worked over by a DE I ran into in heavy fog trying to penetrate a convoy. Iceland seemed just the place to recoup and rack up some easy kills. It was. |
Yes..

I'd check around Philadelphia and Norfolk to see if it reappeared at either of those places. :yep:
