Suicide of DDs and armed trawlers ?!

nirwana · 06-20-08, 12:39 PM

Was sneaking into harbor - trashed anchoring ships - 2 DDs and 2 armed trawler rushing in from sea toward me - sneaking out of the harbor - turning to take on them - ...... rofl they were stucked trying to make a u-turn tracking me outside the harbor and all of them sunk in less then 5 min.....whats going on ?

Well i speculated i can take advantage of this - sneaking again into another harbor - lining up with a wall at 5m distance at periscopdepth - make a lot of noise after sinking 2 cargos - 2 DDs heading towards me - as soon as the DDs are closer then 500m i kick in flankspeed to get out the way and as i hoped the DDs sunk themselves

by turning into my direction hitting

again and

again the walls. I noticed similiar behavior in sh4 where they were hitting sandbanks sligtly below sealevel going straight to my location. Wonder if i can do stuff like this by keeping a zero speed cargoship between me and the approaching escort. After all that weird incidents they should ram the poor cargo and sink.

Oddly enough, they will stop for a ship.

And after they've stopped they to really Odd stuff

You might try to get a DD to run into a lightship though...

also, once they get hedgehogs you won't be having fun this way no more

What's really funny is when they try to depth-charge you at a shallow depth and blow their own stern off in rough seas.

thx ppl im gonne try some of ure inputs just for fun since i wont get credits for suicides - so far it seems that its only a shortcut to get rid of harbordefence forces instead of using my weapons.

Tell me about it, many have survived numbers of times when getting surprised in surface, only because of them sinking themselfs.

Your all first like "OMFG HOYL SITH I R GUNA DIE!!11" and then the DD blows up, and youre like "wat"

And Nirwana; Good luck with that
