Norway Jackpot

SkvyWvr · 08-11-06, 07:12 AM

I was rounding the northern tip of England on my way to my patrol grid when the operations in Norway began. So I deceided to go snoop around. As I approched, I received several Taskforce reports. On a lark I drew a line and guessed they were headed for a Fjord near Trondheim. When I arrived I found a Fiji crusier, 3 troop transports and 3 DDs. 2 of the Transports were already on fire. I took out the Fiji with 3 fish and turned towards the transports. I Sank the 2 that were on fire with 1 hit each and watched the Luftwaffe sink a DD and damage the other transport

. I put 2 into her and watched her quickly sink. The remaining DDs had no interest in finding me as they were too busy with the Luftwaffe. I snuck out and continued to my patrol grid. You can bet I'll visit Norway again in my next career.

I had the same thing

I was in my VIIC on an career when an hell of an Contact reports from norway, taskforces , about 3 - 4 reports...I chased one and tried to intercept them....No luck...I was trumbling around at the coastline...suddently airplanes came.....I crash dived...but they where friendlies ???? I followed the direction they went and came out in an valley with an stationary Tf?

Fiji , Troop transportand some cargo's for the picking....the Lufwaffe was already attacking them. So I sneaked forwards and fired an fish....but its an T1 type...so the Fiji started to move....

....waited untill she was stationary again...and fired an T2. lucky I had 2 in my load out. fired them both under her commander tower and she rolled over and lied on the bottom with the side still above water...:rotfl: ....
I took down an Medium cargo and the troop transport and I was out of fish...Now I snucked pass the DD...at close range...and I guess the luftwaffe where nubs...they did an attack run and blasted my DG and Flaks to pieces and damaged the tower heavily

I couldnt go to my grid anymore because of the lack of diesel....so I went back my port...and reported the nubish Luftwaffe to the BDU! (j/k)

Those three UK troop transports and the cruiser in that fjord are the greatest.

In my current campaign, I managed to fire two torpedoes into each transport. However, I didn't sink a single one

. I had a little Type II-a, so I couldn't do further damage to them, and then flight after flight of Stukas came in and finished them off.

Meh.

He actually did more than enough... By sinking the British invasion fleet (more appropriatly "rescue" fleet or expeditionary force) he assured that the German invasion would succeed...

Which side are you on anyway???
