WHAT THE!!!

The boys and I were west of southern England on the way to Greenland in our IXB OCT40 and we come across a cargo steamer. Too relive the boredom we went in to take some pot shots at it with the deck gun and no sooner the first shell hit the cargo steamer it went up in a fireball and split in two!

Just wondering if I'm packing some serious deck gun ammo.

Must have been loaded down with ammunition - that or you blew the hell out of the fuel bunker. I've never had that happen before.

I was pulling out of Bergen harbour and saw a guy standing on one of the docks casting a fishing rod. In my many years of playing it's the first time I've seen it. I seem to notice something new every day.
