Default One ugly Sub and stupid Skipper

Da Hell is going on here?

Checking the nav map, I get the Call of Ship sighted, Herr Kaleun...
upon further investigation i see a Enemy Submarine. S-Class.
This thing came out of no-where, because shortly after the call, we spotted it, on the surface, coasting along at a leisurely pace, no more than about 5 or 6 knots.
I was also surfaced, time was about 12:45 and the visibility was clear, no clouds, no wind, with the sun at our back.
Before i knew it, we were about 50 to 70 metres away from it.
I'm thinking where the blazers did you come from, since between the time of the call of ship spotted and us being nearly on top of each other, wouldn't have been more than a minute, real time!
A ghost submarine?





So there he is, in bad need of a skin job by me

And here is the shot that proves that the skipper is blind as a bat:



Either that or his Binos are full of Sea Gull Deposits. No firing at all. Nothing.
50 to 60 metres away on a clear day. He's scanning the Ocean with his Sea Gull-tainted Binos, and his No2 who you can just make out on the Turm as well, also on Binos...............sees nothing.
His Gun crew, too busy clasping the Guns tighlty in a all-too-familiar by now Allied 'pose' with those no-less infamous life vests
Surely they would advise that Dumb-*** of a skipper what was going on?

They are on an R&R cruise
Meanwhile, the German skipper is busy taking screenies instead of sinking the Brits

Well, I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

You've run into a British S-Class sub made for GWX there.

Am guessing you were using more than 128x TC which accounts for getting so close to it.

Also, I'm guessing that you have some sort of mod conflict (maybe a weapons file overwrite) that keeps him from firing on you... Tested that one myself before GWX 3.0 was released.
