Horseshoes and Handgrenades..!?

[Hanomag]

Kaluens,

I have been playing SH3 and all the GWX versions for quite some time now.

Because I never really hunt around England I guess I have never been exposed to MINES.

But my assigned patrol grid of AN55 forced me to prowl the English coast. I always report to my assigned patrol grid, keeps the Gestapo off my back.

Anyways after an uneventfull 24hrs I noticed most of the traffic moving south along the coast between Hartepool and Hull. So I ordered full ahead and time compressed SSW for a closer look. When I arrived at my spot, not sure where ,
AN5545 to AN5822 ish, I popped outside my boat for a peek around and low and behold... see how close death looms...



Needless to say, heart failure...



My first mine encounter, I havent ever seen one before except in Episodes of "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea" and a recent reviewing of "Hot Fuzz". I have seen many posts regarding deaths and location etc. but never really worried about this threat before.



Thank god I always... SAVE FIRST!

So I guess ALMOST counts for Sea Mines as well as Horseshoes and Handgrenades!!
