Default Haha Nice!

Just sank an enemy merchant in the Kiel Canal.

I left Kiel heading out for my patrol, and about 3/4th of the way through it i came across a polish ship heading the same way.

How he got there unscathed i will never know, but it was pretty awesome to gun him down with all the nice scenery around us LOL.

But, i died.

While zipping through the rest of the kanal on TC, it appears i collided with a friendly ship that didn't move out of the way fast enough.

Noooooo!

Keep the updates coming. You guys are making me excited. I know it will have its problems. Seems all the games I buy do so I expect the worst. My first Atlantic Campaign. SH4 was alright but I hated fleet boats so much, don't know why. Liked the U-boats better, and excited to not have to sail a quarter across the planet to get to my patrol zone.

Hopefully downloads open up at midnight, I don't have anything to do tomorrow.

Hated fleetboats? Did you give the mods like TMO and RSRD a try?

Just tried TMO recently. Makes a huge difference. Got rid of those awesome sink 50000 tons of merchant shipping in this area where there is no shipping patrols. I just liked how the U-bout UI was set up for some reason. I haven't played in a long time but I remember being more accurate with the U-boat TDC, if there was any difference, probably all in my head.

Nah. Although if you were to lay in with the "OMG fleetboats suxors!! Das Boot 4 teh win!" I'd be in a back room, putting an old rusty axe to a grindstone, and probably bust out with my impersonation of . (NSFW )

That's probably it. Das Boot ruined me. Maybe it is because I was just terrible at the game and all those IJN DC's were too mean for me. I really wish instead of the U-Boat missions they did IJN campaign. I am sure those mean old brits will beat me up too. Maybe I will stay in the Baltic the whole war.

Not sure hate is the right word. How about despise, or loathe?

Just kidding, but watch it on the fleetboats, pal! Subs with ice cream machines are the cat's pajamas.

Is this something the mod dudes can add to SH3/5?

Just cuss they were Nazi's does not mean they hated ice cream does it?

Think what a round of soft serve would do to crew morale during a really bad depth charge session!
