Raid on scapa!!

emtmedic005 · 02-26-07, 09:43 AM

I did it, haha, But nothing too big was in it, But i managed to sneak in pass the half sunk ships and through the mines and subnets. My first contacts were two VW DDs one was moving the other was stationary. Then i moved north to the port. Two tankers, a troop transport, a Fuji Class Cruiser and two medium cargo ships. Then i moved west and noticed a little craft heading towards me, PT boat. Took it out with my deck gun. Then i found an AUX Crusier, easy one shot kill, and a Dido (I think) Cruiser. This all happend at night sooo i was fun. I thought i took awhole bunch of screenshots but i was pushing the wrong buttons, soo im a little pissed about that. Scapa Flow Is too easy, where are some other "easy" harbors to raid?

I was only able to get into Scapa Flow once and it was so long ago, I forget what I sunk. I do remember that one ship I sunk, I didn't get credit for because it was too shallow.

In order to avoid pushing the wrong buttons to take screen shots, I use a program called HypersnapDX and it works great. It requires a folder to put the snaps in and they will stay there untill you delete them. It does a great job for me.

Congratz!

I did Scapa with SHII, that was enough.
I just got back from 2nd patrol with a IX. Will have to resign from the Second Patrol you're Dead Club and see if Warhawk will let me join the Third Patrol You're Dead Club.

That's an impressive haul!

I've gotten into Scapa more times than I've gotten out, and I'll leave it at that.

Yeah yeah we all probably tried to raid Scapa Flow.

I found it anti-climatic. Now try to raid Dover or Lock Ewe :hmm:

Last time I was anywhere near Scappa the game was mid `40 I think. I tried to short-cut through the lower channel ... screw that noise now.
