HMS Nelson

Dallass_Drake · 12-31-06, 04:11 AM

I just encountered HMS Nelson, the first time I've ever come across a capital ship in SH3

During my second patrol in 1939, I was hanging about Halifax and found this beast lurking within an approaching convoy. Stuck six torps into it and claimed my 36000 tonnes

Was a beautiful sight

I assume this is GWX's doing

Does anyone know any other areas and times to watch out for, I'd love to find some more monsters ... Also, will that remove Nelson from the game or will it just regenerate?

Six torps? Are u using a XXI? Early in 1939?

A VIIB, wasn't too pleasant waiting for the reloads, but the first four went out at 2600m so I had some time and luckily a good officer in at my forward tubes

I thought u were usein a XXI.

The GWX has a multitude of good areas and times. The imersion factor in finding them is partly what makes this game so appealing

The Nelson along with any other warship or merchant will re-spawn once you are approx in excess of 50km away
