Default Ice, Ice, baby.

Has anyone come across any Iceburgs in the stock missions yet?

Actually, that's why I was asking. I have never seen them in the stock game. I was looking for a stock mission to look at.


I put these in myself.

I'm working on North Atlantic missions for the Uboat add-on.

Shhhhhhhhhhh.

I'm experimenting with the interactions between convoys and escorts with the iceburgs. The iceburgs constantly drift, always on the move.

A nice game of cat and mouse between your sub and a destroyer in a tight field of moving iceburgs is going to be a real blast.

Wait until you see hedgehogs hit an iceburg.

The big iceburgs extend down into the water a good good ways. 100 ft? It becomes quite a maze in "just deep enough" waters.

Wow these look great!

Reminds me of the scenes from the Bedford incident!
Oh boy, I can't wait for that!. Very cool! (No pun intended)

Anybody been up to Dutch Harbor in Alaska? Can't believe they wouldn't have modeled some ice sheets or bergs up there.
