Guns solve problems, the bigger the gun, the faster the problem gets solved!! Gotta be the 15 inchers! hands down :rotfl:

yer, but 4x14" guns has two times the possibility for scoring a hit over 2x15" guns.... lol
either way the reasults of both will not be pretty on 0.1" - 0.2" plating
:arrgh!:

You have simply played to much wargames :rotfl:

I anticipate a draw. As long as both ships fire, and at that distance, it's either a MAD scenario, or is a Recoil-induced-suborbital-ship-launch :lol:

:hmm: I am going to have to place a bet "KMS BISFARCK for a win" Like to place a bet also "for a first shot draw" :rotfl: Can I bet like this or do I have to be one way or the other

bookworm_020 08-25-05 02:56 AM

The one who doesn't fire fire will win. The other will be doing a poor impression of a submarine, due to the force of the recoil. :o

Then again with a sea state as shown both could be on the bottom in the near future :hmm:

Can anyone create a mod to put one of the big guns on my sub? British M2 anyone!! :arrgh!:

Can't wait......can't wait......can't wait :rotfl:

OMG!! :o

Those are biiig guns!!! But those boats are über for not sinking with that big guns!!

So, I`ll bet a draw. They`ll both sink, because of the weight of the guns! :)

:rotfl: Those are some big guns on small ships.............how far will they be blown backwards?

Naturally, they have to put the Statue of Liberty between them, which I am sure would just tickle the NYC tourism bureau pink.

I have to go with the Bisfark. She has speed, armor and weapons advantage. As long as she can stay at long range, she should be fine.

I can't believe that I am anayizing this.

Syxx_Killer 08-25-05 07:58 AM

ROFL!! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

I gotta go with the Bisfark. After all, she's packin extra armor. :88) :rotfl:

Oberon 08-25-05 08:02 AM

I wonder if Bisfarck's got a weak rudder? :hmm:

Syxx_Killer 08-25-05 08:19 AM

You need to have a big showdown of those seafleas. About 20 on each side would be pretty funny. :rotfl:
