Default Unique Kill

Returning from another patrol late '44 & the U1070 ends up chasing a convoy in the English channel towards Dover. Sucessfully taken a couple C3s out from the flank and now we're inside. Lining up for the kill on my favourite prey, a juicy passenger liner. Much renown! The swine are zigzagging changing course and getting nearer the coast all the time. Must have scared them! Or are they clearing the way for destroyers? Soon I'll have to get the chief to fit wheels on the bottom of the boat! Only 2 or 3 meters left below the keel.Loads of pinging and random depth chaging but there's a job to do and nowhere to run. Nobody ever brought a coward a drink! The crew of U1070 would rather be toasted as dead heros. Press on regardless go for the kill!

Set up a salvo of three T3s, 14meters depth, magnetic setting, 2 degrees spread. 750meters away. Open outer doors....
Whoosh 3 eels on the way! Switch to the external cam and get it under the liner, this will be good to watch. 3 eels, that keels gonna snap like a dry twig!


Whats this, eh,what, woah!

She's gone sunk by a British mine!


The game might not credit me, Bdu might ignore this, but my crew know we're responsible! We're claiming this kill.

We scared them, they lost their nerve, did'nt read their charts and got sunk!

Saved our ass too, I had'nt realised we had sailed into a minefield!

Got out, got home, got drunk!
I guess Bernard was not with us on that cruise!

Attacking a Convoy in the Chanal in late "44!? Respect!

I always get excited when i have the change of getting a nice kill like a liner or a battle ship.

Great kill! Again we are shown the stupidity of the British Captains!

These old eyes can't read the fine print.
