A noob in Bdu gets the finest torpedo avaliable

peterloo · 01-05-07, 08:56 AM

I started a career in 1942 in Bergen (in GWX)

(I started and loaded without using SH3 commander)

Of course, I got my boat, which is a VIIC boat

The equipments are the standard ones, OK. Let's see how much T3 I get...

To my suprise, I got 4 T4s homing eel to use... How come Bdu giving me such expensive stuff??? Also, I received T4 in 1942, that means that I am a beta tester (as it is not released yet, as shown as in the diagram, I cannot get the 5th T4)

I only got 500 renown (the renown of a noob). I didn't sunk any ship, how can I obtain these stuffs?

I started my patrol, with those 4 eel which are more expensive than gold. I lost my boat with all hands after chased down by a Black Swan (6 K-guns, 2 racks), with all the T4s, as I didn't fire any one of them

Well that was very foolhardy of Bdu entrusting you with their state of the art weaponry wasn't it

The first torps where given to the boats that where trained to use them. This usually meant that they where given to crews that had just come from Baltic training. i.e. "Noobs"
It took a while before they started to send the old Klauens back for re-training with the new torps.
You would think you wouldn't need much training, but various practice runs where done with reusable dud torps that had flags on them so you could follow them around. Thats gotta be fun!

Of course, SH3 just gives them randomly!

I started the same career a little while back, also from Bergen '42 in a VIIC.
Got those T-IV's too.

I loaded 3 of them in my stern, and filled my bow with T-I's and T-III's.
Still haven't used the T-IV's, but I've loaded them in my stern, for when I am being chased.
I think they are a nice addition to the decoys I also "bought".
