warning: deadly accurate coastal batteries

Frank Ravelli · 07-12-11, 04:50 PM

Hi there,

I have just started a new campaign using the mods TMO 2.1+RSRD and my first mission is patrolling 85 nm south of Tokio. I approached the opening of Tokio bay at night, hoping to find some convoy or lone merchant travelling the route in or out of the bay. I noticed a couple of icons that wasn´t there when using TMO 2.1 without RSRD. They are coastal batteries icons. The distance to the closest battery was about 13 nm. Dark night. Suddenly a shell hits my boat, followed by several splashes on the water around me. I was so astonished by the situation that i kept searching for a DD in the area, but there was none. By the time i dove to periscope depth i had 31 hull damage and the batteries compartment flooded.
Is this a feature of RSRD? I am just curious about it. The mod is supposed to affect traffic only isnt it?

Anyway, I felt like warning you guys not to feel too confident when you see that icon close to your sub, even in the dark
