What will you do for the last kill???
 

Got a few Screenshots and a funny story to share if you are interested.

I've only been playing SHIII around a month. I've probably got 30 missions under my belt and I just started my second career game. These shots are from my second mission I just ended. You probably won’t believe it, I wouldn’t if I didn’t have the screenshots to prove it. I just finished patrolling the sector for 24 hours and now I’m in a shipping lane looking for more tonnage. I bag a few C2s and I have one last torp. I’m just about ready to warp back to port and call it quits when I get a contact closing on my position. It’s a merchant headed straight for me. It turns out only to be a small merchant and I have one torp. so I figure I might as well burn it on this ship. Almost a waste of ammo, right? Just you wait.

It closes right up to me and I mag. it at 90 deg. 500m around 3:45AM. Time you say…why the time…read on it gets better. Boom! Huge explosion but it doesn’t break the ship and it doesn’t sink. The ship has a huge list of probably 45% or more so I sit and compress for fifteen game minutes and I don’t believe it. It’s not sinking or even moving!

I surface the ship and tell the navigator to pull right up next to the ship. I ask the ships first officer to start taking notes and pictures. Here’s one of the ship around 4:00AM as we surface and start our sharking circle waiting for the ship to sink.

I ask the Weapons Officer to man the deck gun. He reports back we are out of ammo sir but the flak gun is full. I order him to empty the flak gun on the ship and on anything left on deck that burns as we circle her.

After exhausting the flak gun and gunner. Notice the time 4:33AM.

All out of ammo! No change in the ship at all.

I’m not letting this %$^% !@$% merchant ship get the better of me! I’ll show him! Navigator plot a course to bring us 90 deg at a range of 1000m.

Rudder Amidships. Chief Engineer set your speed to RAMMING!

Nice one! Love the pictures!

:lol: haha nice. I'm to much of a coward to ram a ship :nope:

nice! :rock:

Fargel...

You have RAMMstein as a sig? Anyone else see the irony here? I only received 3% damage for the stunt. It was worth it too me. Bast*** had it coming!

fuuny stuff, but what the hell is going on with the sea and the sky? you got sparkling carribean style waters with a stormy black sky, it looks really.... er... wrong! :doh:

yer the colours are very trippy

Where is the irony in that? please enlighten me.
Du hast mich! :hulk:

you must of had Drebbel on board at the helm of the flying dutchman

Yeah...I had to completely change the pics using autocorrection. It was pitch black. Turned them into a kinda zappa filter.

Here's an original...

The irony with RAMMstein as his sig. is he is afraid of RAMMing a boat.

good one todd293! It was either him or a drunk King James I.

Orlando, from the partial flag shots we see, it looks like you may have sunk a German Small Merchant. Did you get credit for an enemy ship? Thx

fantastic!!! :arrgh!:

Where did you get the sky mod from. it is a sky mod isn't it? my sky dont look that cool.

Orlando looks like a photoshop expert. I don't think the sky was originally that way.

The ship was definetly red on map and not blue or green. I did get credit for the kill and no penalties.

I am using NationalityMod_v3.0. I'm sure it changes some of the flags.

Here's the best angel and zoom of the flag. I don't believe it was German. The swastika is in the center of the flag if I recall correctly and this flag is red with an emblem in the upper right only canton style.

Maybe a UK Red duster?
