Notable ships you have sunk?
What ships of note (famous merchants or Cruisers or better Military) have one of your captains taken to the bottom?
HMS Rodney and HMS Newcastle - Rodney in the counterattack on Norway, the the Newcastle was in a convoy I blundered into. HMS Hood - Died soon after in my crazy port attack, snuck into Ewe, didn't make it out. HMS Ramillies - my only notable kill on a attack on a task-force, hit it at 10,000 meters in a stormy night. |
Rodney, Revenge and a few Brit fleet carriers. It is so lovely to see a large proud ship wallowing helplessly and know you are responsible for it.

I got Illustrious as she left Gib once. Just happened to be patrolling in the strait of gibraltar when I hear all these warships heading my way. After changing my underwear I took a quick peek with the periscope and was surprised to see that nice fat prize in the perfect position for a shot :up: Decided to make doubly sure and fired all my forward tubes at her.

Nelson and revenge, both in convoys in 1940 i think.
|
A Bogue escort carrier on 4th July. One in the eye for Uncle Sam!
|
A tanker, thinking it was Revenge :D
|
Revenge class BB. Only major capital ship I have ever sunk.
|
Hood, twice, a year ago (real time, not game).... never seen her since.

After all my patrols, I've yet to sink a single BB:damn: Biggest ship I've sunk is a Aux. Cruiser.

HMS Hood followed by HMS Nelson on the same patrol, 22 hours later. Was in a good area for intercepting two passing task forces:

Several British battleships, 4-5 Bogue carriers, RMS Queen Elizabeth, RMS Laconia, assorted Troop ships.:yawn: You know, the usual stuff.:03:
|
My own U-Boat. Think about it. The entire world ceases to exist if you and your boat are destroyed. Quite notable if you ask me. :hmmm:
The Renown class battleship, Illustrious class carrier, etc... Those are probably the largest. Other than the Rodney, and another warship whose name escapes me, I don't believe I've seen any named vessels. I should get out more... and sink them. |
