Default Saving the Big-B's Butt

So low and behold i found myself in the right place and right time to help out the Bismark this morning!

And honestly is was quite the blunder on my part to end up at that place and time as i was sure i was pretty late!

But steaming along my ever watchful crew (via mod of course) sighted ships headed my way. Two British BB's steaming right at us.

Well it was rather nice of them to not zigzag. I might have to find out if those two skippers survived it so i can add them to my X-mas card list!





After performing surgery on those two i surfaced and headed at flank speed toward the Big B's location to try to help out with the two cruisers she was facing.

But she did just fin on her own.


After all this i did a bone head thing and surfaced along side the Bismark for some well deserved thanks from her crew...only to have some Biplanes turn my once wonder 100% hull integrety to a much smaller number.

But all in all it was much much fun! A big thanks to the GWX team for that little piece of history i got to be a part of...

Even if it didnt turn out like all the history books say it did....(snicker snicker)

Looks like the fly boys from Force H decided to say hello. Well done on saving the Bismark, you've just changed history lol.

Kptnlt. Johan Sebastian Balz, the pride of the Kriegsmarine. Has the pleasure of congratulating your effort. You can buy him a drink when you return to port

Well Done, the drinks are on Kapt Balz, when he's in port that is.
