Hi Guys
I was on my 16th patrol on my way to the newfoundland banks and had just sunk a big fat passenger liner of about 23000 grt a day or so before and now low and behold another one appreared from directly astern as it was daylight I immediately submerged and plotted a course to intercept this was done and I got to within about 1500 metres and then let fly 3 eels all of which hit their target. After the 3 hits I decided to lower the periscope and turn around for a stern shot so now that I was in position I raised the scope but I couldn't lock on the target as apparently the ship was already sinking but I didn't get the "She's going down" message on the message screen and also strangly enough didn't get the kill, I now surfaced and closed the liner which was now half sunk and was gone a few more minutes after that I tried sending a status report but it only had my first liner not both, this has never happened to me before so i am not sure what exactly happened, very strange. Anyway I continued my patrol and sank another 3 ships for about a total 35000 grt but it should of been about 57000 grt. Good news is i hit the 300,000 Grt mark gave myself the diamonds to cheer my dampened spirits. Anyway any explanation to why this was not recorded in my diary as a kill ??? PS :- Im using the latest GWX if thats any help. Cheers Easty |
