Celebrating the new year in Scapa Flow...

[Armada]

First of all i would like to wish to all members-captains a very happy New Year

As the tittle said......and shortly before the sunrise of the New Year .... and a few minutes after ..... Scapa Flow celebrates with my crew.....

• Real Navigation.......100%.........With Manual TDC.....

• without external views.........

• sailling as blind........

• don't know where i'm going......

• with only 4 torpedoes......3 in front...1 back.......

• DM4 the killing of destroyer in the entrance of Scapa......

• DM7 the BIG One.......

• DM6 the killing of 2nd destroyer in the exit of Scapa......

• 2 torpedoes in Big one and the last torpedoe to destroyer....and the killing was a little bit simultaneously.......

• With 53% Hull integrity from airlplanes before Scapa.....

When i was getting out of Scapa after plotting my course for the base and pressing TC more.....a destroyer caught me and shot me some bullets....

i had some damage....i submerged and he passed over me whithout drop to me charges......

maybe he din't know where i was.....he lost me.....

After that.......look the last picture and guess how difficult it is to me to get back to base......

But i Beleive that i can handle it........as Greek...

Do you think that i will be back at the base ?.......The answer in next year...... Happy New Year my friends and Captains.....

You sailed right in the main entrance???

I'd say there's something wrong with the scenario.

I did this mission the same way, Steve... sailed right in the front, sank the battleship, then exited through the western opening. Never saw any minefields - but did find sub nets in the western opening. I must have been more sneaky tho... never had a shot fired at my boat until I was outside Scapa.

Oh, I believe it. My point was that if the game lets you do that, the game is screwy. Prien was only able to sneak in the east channel after Doenitz had surveyed aerial photographs and the two of them carefully plotted it. After Prien's raid the east channel was sealed off. You should have exactly zero chance of getting in that main south entrance.

Armada, where did you get the mod of the last photo (the Type VII old ilustration chart)?

Georgios.....or simply Armada

It's,
Drifter's Damage Control Screen v1.02 for SH5 v1.1

or it might be,
[REL] Nauticalwolf's Damage and Torpedo UI Mod

[REL] Nauticalwolf's Damage and Torpedo UI Mod link is broken... and seems to be very well for me.

Well I have just downloaded both the grey and the brown version a couple of seconds ago.

Now it works, it seemed that the fileserver was down. I downloaded the brown version without problems now . Good looking mod... less "modern" that the stock uboat chart.
And even the torpedoes texture is rework... nice.

So i don't know anything about that.
