We have been betrayed

STEED · 04-24-07, 01:05 PM

My fellow kapitans I have grave news to report, I spotted coming out from English waters 2 medium cargo 2 large tankers and 1 small cargo and no escorts for Dec41 and it looked like jackpot but as I closed in I could not believe my eyes. Italy is a traitor, trading with the enemy. I was so out raged I sunk them all without any pity what so ever.

I am disgusted by Italy are so called Allie.

Are you sure it wasn't Ireland? ... The flags look very similar...

EDIT: or maybe Mexico?

too bad there are no survivors modeled in the game... you could have put the AA guns to good use.

Maraz

it probably was

I doubled checked that possibility and anyway on sinking them they were all marked blue on the map.

I need a strong cup of tea.

I don't believe Italy was a member of the Axis yet in Dec41.... or were they? The "Free " Italians were Allies and maybe you sank them? Too bad you can't tell the 2 apart the way SH3 is setup, and they snould have different icon colors so you know who's who. .

STEED!!!

you sunk the secret commando mission to infiltrate a British port and steal tankers and merchant ships and capture British VIPs.

the plan was a huge success and the group was nearly on the home stretch

then you showed up! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

BERNARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

STEED · 04-24-07, 01:33 PM

I am now calm, wow this game really draws you in. I shall put it down to a strange glitch and hope never to see that again.

Yes they were, Italy entered war in June 1940

Never heard of Free Italians (like Free French). After the Armistice of 8 September 1943, Italy joined Allied side (but was not given the status of "ally" but of "co-belligerent"). In the Norther, German-occupied portion of Italy, a puppet-state, "Repubblica di Salò" was founded and given to the formal leadership of Mussolini, they fought with the Germans but their Navy was very small.

But were you awarded renown for sinking these ships? What does a blue icon mean? (I have always played with map updates off)

Maraz

Sunken ship in blue=Allies (These ships were not in my book

)

I lost renown for that but I don't care as I am not interested in it, I got my own system.

Dastardly traitorous scum.

Now, how are you going to explain to the Gestapo about sinking friendly ships? :hmm:
