Lesson learnt, don't do it kids
Some pics:
The Royal Navy goes for a joy-ride "Wave action Duuuude!!"
The prize goes down, netting me 50k
An S Class British sub gets a torpedo in the side, sunk like a rock!
So, there we have it, Portsmouth raided, sirens wailing, and me scraping my fat ass over the sub net on the way out with tracers whizzing past the tower. I had intel that the Ark Royal might have been in town, hence my visit, but the Aquitania is a good second place prize
Now I just have to alter a few logs because for some bizarre reason the sim has decided to forget the 35k I made before I reached the Thalia in Spain.
